Tottenham Hotspur suffered a humiliating 5-2 defeat against Atlético Madrid in the first leg of their Champions League tie on 10 March 2026. The loss marks the sixth consecutive defeat for Spurs manager Igor Tudor, who is now fighting to save his job.
The north London club has been in poor form since the sacking of Thomas Frank in February 2026. Tudor was appointed with the hope that he would ease the pressure on the team, but results have continued to slide.
According to Gianluca Di Marzio of Sky Sports News, Tudor is now at risk of being dismissed following a club-record six straight losses. Pressure is mounting ahead of their next fixture against Liverpool at Anfield on 15 March 2026.
Fans and the Tottenham board have described the situation as a crisis, with growing frustration behind the scenes over Tudor's inability to turn results around quickly. BBC Sport reporter Sami Mokbel has suggested that the Tottenham hierarchy faces significant decisions regarding the manager's future, noting a disconnect between Tudor and the players following the Champions League loss to Atlético Madrid.
Tottenham currently sits just one point above the relegation zone in the Premier League. Fans have been highly critical of the manager, arguing that the club is failing to show improvement under his leadership. Tudor remains under intense pressure as the club battles to escape the relegation fight.
