Arne Slot: Feyenoord head coach staying with Dutch club amid links to Tottenham

Feyenoord head coach Arne Slot has confirmed he will be staying at the Dutch club amid strong links to become Tottenham's next head coach.

The 44-year-old has been linked with a move to Tottenham since the sacking of Antonio Conte, and there were reports that he had already agreed a deal to move to north London.

However, Slot has now put those reports to bed, saying that he is "very happy" at Feyenoord and that he is "not interested" in a move to Tottenham.

"I am very happy at Feyenoord," Slot said. "I have a contract until 2024 and I am not interested in any other clubs. I am focused on Feyenoord and I want to help the club to achieve its goals."

Slot's comments will come as a blow to Tottenham, who are still looking for a new head coach. However, the Dutchman's decision to stay at Feyenoord is a boost for the club, who are looking to build on their recent success.

Feyenoord finished second in the Eredivisie last season, and they are currently in the Europa Conference League semi-finals. Slot has been praised for his work at the club, and he is seen as one of the most promising young coaches in Europe.

It remains to be seen who Tottenham will appoint as their next head coach, but Slot's decision to stay at Feyenoord will make it more difficult for them to land their top target.
