The 46-year-old Italian has taken over from Igor Tudor, who lasted just 44 days at Tottenham. De Zerbi has signed a contract with the club until the summer of 2031. "I signed a five-year contract because this is a huge challenge for me. I will be Tottenham's coach next season, no matter what. Tottenham, especially at this moment, is perhaps the most important challenge of my career. I am ready to start," he stated, according to AFP.

The former Olympique Marseille and Brighton manager also dismissed claims of a clause in his contract that would allow him to leave the club if they were relegated. With seven matches remaining in the season, the "Spurs" sit in 17th position in the Premier League, just one point above the relegation zone.
