TOTTENHAM managerial target Arne Slot has said he wants to stay at Feyenoord in a blow to Spurs and their under-pressure chairman Daniel Levy.
Spurs identified Slot as a leading candidate to succeed Antonio Conte after he led Feyenoord to the Eredivisie title in swashbuckling style.
The 44-year-old had hinted at his interest in the job, but this morning said he wanted to build on his work at De Kuip, and insisted a meeting between his representative, Rafaela Pimenta, and the Dutch club’s general manager Dennis te Kloese yesterday was to discuss a contract extension.
Slot said: “I have been hearing a lot of rumours going around about other clubs’ interest in me. Although I am thankful, my wish is to stay at Feyenoord and continue working on what we created last year.
