Tottenham have dismissed their highly-regarded coach Paul Bracewell, sources have told Football Insider.
It is believed the former Everton midfielder left the Premier League club, where he was listed as a “senior academy coach”, last month.
Sources have told Football Insider that Bracewell could now be set to join a new club, with offers already on the table.
Bracewell has built a fine reputation at the top level as an individual development coach, and has worked for many years for the Spurs academy nurturing their top young talents.
Tottenham sources say Bracewell officially left his role in the club’s Academy set-up last month “due to his role being made redundant”.
