Spurs’ 35 year old goalkeeping coach Hans Leitert has been axed. Leitert had been working with Brazilian keeper Heurelho Gomes, who was a summer signing from PSV Eidenhoven.

An official statement reads:

“We should like to thank him for his contribution and wish him well. An announcement regarding a new appointment will be made in due course.”

Despite a deserved reputation for being error-prone, Harry Redknapp has described his faith in Gomes:

“He’s our number one goalkeeper so he’s got to do the job - we’re relying on him heavily.

“I believe in him and we have to believe in him.

“Obviously he is disappointed with the weekend but his record tells you he is a world-class goalkeeper.

“He has to bounce back from that and turn in a terrific performance this weekend. I’m sure he’ll do that. He’s a strong character. It’s up to him now.”

Amongst the contenders to take over as goalkeeping coach are Cesar Sanchez and Ben Alnwick
