Ex-Tottenham boss Igor Tudor in line to replace Maurizio Sarri at Atalanta

Serie A side Atalanta have been struggling so far this season and were held to a dramatic 4-4 draw by Frosinone at the weekend. This came after a loss to Ajax in the Conference League, which put further pressure onto Maurizio Sarri. Now, ex-Tottenham boss Igor Tudor is being considered as a replacement.

TuttoJuve note that the next few games will crucial for Sarriโ€™s future, with Atalanta not happy with the situation at the club.

The dressing room also isnโ€™t happy with their run of ten points in eight games and failure to beat Ajax in Europe.

If results donโ€™t change, Tudor would be the leading candidate to replace Sarri, having last managed Tottenham for a few games towards the end of last season. Cristiano Guintoli knows the Croatian well from their time at Juventus, where Tudor spent a few months as manager and helped them qualify for the Champions League as well.

There is a chance Atalanta can offer Tudor a lower salary than what Sarri earns, as La Dea donโ€™t want two managers on their payroll.
