Tottenham Seeks Performance Psychologist as De Zerbi Targets Mental Reset

The public search signals a shift toward evidence-based mental support to try to halt the slide.

Overview

  • Tottenham has posted a LinkedIn ad for an “exceptional performance psychologist” to provide evidence-based support for elite players.
  • Head coach Roberto De Zerbi pushed the move after returning in late March and taking one point from his first two matches.
  • The men’s team sits 18th in the Premier League and is winless in 15 matches.
  • Spurs have not won at home in 2026, with the last home victory on December 6 against Brentford and the last league win on December 28 at Crystal Palace.
  • A parallel recruitment is underway for Tottenham Hotspur Women, and the next trip to Wolverhampton, already relegated, is framed as a key chance to regain stability.
