The Dutch league winner had been viewed as a front-runner for Tottenham's vacancy
Arne Slot, viewed by many as one of the leading candidates for the vacant coaching job at Tottenham, has ruled himself out of contention at Spurs by recommitting his future to Dutch champions Feyenoord. The 44-year-old manager has made a profound impact on the Rotterdam club since his appointment in 2021 and earlier this month guided them to their first Eredivisie title in six years.
Slot's success in the Netherlands caught the attention of Spurs, who were expected to hold talks with him over the vacancy that they have had since sacking Antonio Conte at the end of March. Any such prospect has now been quelled with the Dutchman indicating that he has begun dialogue over a new contract at De Kuip.
"I have been hearing a lot of rumors going around about other clubs' interest in me," Slot said. "Although I am thankful, my wish is to stay at Feyenoord and continue working on what we created last year.
