Tottenham Hotspur have begun searching for a new manager though Antonio Conte has yet to be fired.
Conte will almost certainly not return next season and may be fired before the end of the current season.
Spurs are still fourth, although Newcastle have closed to within two points of them with two matches in hand.
Mauricio Pochettino, Thomas Tuchel and Luis Enrique are candidates for the job and all three would likely prefer to begin their tenure in the offseason.
