TOTTENHAM are reportedly set for a U-turn and will hold talks with Nuno Espirito Santo.
Spurs ruled the former Wolves boss out of the running but appear to have had a change of heart as their managerial saga drags on.
Tottenham ruled out appointing Nuno earlier this summer but the club have changed their mind and are poised for talks with him, according to Football Insider.
Nuno left Wolves at the end of last season and has held talks with Everton and Crystal Palace over their vacant positions.
But Spurs are now back in the running for the Portuguese coach after failing to land a host of managerial targets.
Graham Potter is the latest name to be heavily linked with the job as his odds were slashed to move to Tottenham.
Spurs have seen moves for Paulo Fonseca and Gennaro Gattuso fall through in the last fortnight.
It continues a turbulent summer for Daniel Levy’s club with star striker Harry Kane also pushing for a move in a bid to win trophies.

Tottenham have also failed in a move to persuade Mauricio Pochettino to return to the club while talks with former Inter Milan boss Antonio Conte broke down.
With Spurs struggling to find a replacement for Jose Mourinho, sporting director Fabio Paratici is reportedly pursuing Nuno as a target.
But the rest of the board favour other candidates and it appears Spurs are no closer to securing their new manager more than two months after sacking Mourinho.
