With former Newcastle managing director Amanda Staveley at the helm of a Middle Eastern group looking to invest in Spurs, attention has now turned to Howe's situation.
Newcastle United boss Eddie Howe is being linked with Ange Postecoglou's job at Tottenham.AdvertisementAdvertisementShould progress under Postecoglou begin to stall, if Staveley's group is in place, a move for Howe is expected.
Staveley is a big fan of Howe and would push for him to succeed the Australian should a change be needed.
Howe has also been linked with the England post, though the cost to buy him out of his Newcastle contract has turned off the FA.
