Roberto De Zerbi has shared his first message with Tottenham Hotspur supporters after being appointed as the club’s new head coach earlier this week.
The Italian manager arrived at Hotspur Way on Wednesday and addressed fans in a short video released through the club’s official social media channels.
“A Great Honour” – De Zerbi’s First Words
In his message, De Zerbi expressed pride and excitement about taking charge at Tottenham and emphasized his commitment to the role.
“It’s a great honour for me, and I’m very proud to be your coach,” he said. “I want to give my best and I hope to stay here for a long time at this big club.”
His comments show an early goal to build stability and a long-term project with Spurs.
First Match Set for Sunderland Clash
De Zerbi is set to take charge of his first match on April 12, when Tottenham faces Sunderland.
This match will give the 46-year-old a chance to make an impact as he begins his time in North London.
A Challenging Situation in the League
The new manager steps into a tough spot, with Tottenham currently just one point above the relegation zone in the Premier League.
This difficult position puts added pressure on De Zerbi to deliver results quickly and keep the club safe.
