Bild have revealed that Tottenham Hotspur would have to pay significant compensation to Bayern Munich should the North London club decide to appoint Julian Nagelsmann before the summer.
As soon as the news of Bayern Munich’s sacking of Nagelsmann emerged last week, multiple publications have indicated that Tottenham have been alerted by the situation and are expected to make contact with the German (Evening Standard and Football Insider).

The Telegraph reported on Friday that the Lilywhites tried to appoint the former RB Leipzig boss back in 2021 and are now expected to make another attempt since he is back on the market.
The publication also added that the 35-year-old has an affinity towards the North London club and even owns a Spurs replica shirt.
Spurs confirmed on Sunday that they had parted ways with Antonio Conte and that Cristian Stellini will take charge on an interim basis until the end of the season, with Ryan Mason as his assistant.
Bild have now explained that should either Tottenham or Real Madrid decide to appoint Nagelsmann as their head coach before the end of the season, they would have to pay €20m (£17.5m) to Bayern.
Spurs Web Opinion
I suspect that the Tottenham hierarchy would have been ready to pay the aforementioned fee in order to beat Real Madrid to Nagelsmann’s signature, particularly given that Champions League qualification is worth a lot more than £17m.
However, I suspect the likes of Nageslmann and Pochettino would have wanted to wait until the summer to see what options open up, which is why the Lilywhites decided to hand Stellini the reins until the summer.
