Former Manchester United captain Roy Keane has been backed to come in and save Tottenham's season
Roy Keane has sensationally been backed to take over at Tottenham following Igor Tudor's exit on Sunday.
The Croatian has left his role as interim head coach with immediate effect after winning just one of his seven games in charge. Spurs are currently 17th in the Premier League and face the threat of relegation should results not improve.
Along with Tudor, Tomislav Rogic and Riccardo Ragnacci have also left their respective roles of goalkeeping coach and physical coach. football.london understands that Bruno Saltor has remained and will lead training for those at Hotspur Way in the coming days.

It's understood Spurs expect to appoint a new boss in the next couple of days. The Lilywhites want a head coach in place to welcome players back from international duty, giving the squad sufficient time to prepare for the end-of-season run-in, with Sunderland up next on April 12.
Louis Saha, who played for Spurs in the second half of the 2011/12 season, believes former Manchester United captain Keane could come in and make a difference. Saha also tipped Harry Redknapp to do a job.
Speaking to Ozzon, Saha said: "It's a tough one because it's a club I love. There is so much uncertainty with the managers, players and fans. It really hasn’t aligned with the ambitions of the club.
"Losing to Nottingham Forest has to be a big wake-up call, things have to change and they need to find the leaders in their squad who will stand up. They have talent and they are physically strong, when they play well they do look like a good team.
"They have made poor decisions in the transfer market and they need to stay up at all costs, but right now they are fragile. I love Harry Redknapp and have really good memories and know why people are thinking about him to save the club. He has this kind of connection with players, respect and he gives you full confidence to perform.
"That could be a solution. You need character there to make an impact, even if he hasn’t managed for a long time. Another option for Spurs would be Roy Keane, he is a strong character with plenty of experience, he is more than just someone who will shout at the players. He knows the game.
"He is smart enough to adapt to keep this team in the Premier League, he will get charisma from the players and who knows, he might be able to save them."
