[MyDaily = Kim Geon-ho] Roberto De Zerbi, Tottenham Hotspur manager, reiterated that he will remain with the club even if they are relegated.
Tottenham will face Everton in the 38th round of the 2025–26 English Premier League at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London on May 25 at 12:00 a.m. KST.
The match could determine Tottenham’s fate. The club has endured a difficult season and sits 17th with a record of 9 wins, 11 draws and 17 losses for 38 points.
In the Premier League, the teams finishing 18th through 20th are relegated to the English Championship. Tottenham are battling to stay up alongside 18th-place West Ham United, who have 36 points.
Tottenham hold the edge: a draw with Everton would likely secure their survival, since West Ham would need to beat Leeds by at least a 12-point margin to overtake them in the table.
However, a Tottenham loss could hand the advantage to West Ham — if West Ham beats Leeds, the positions would flip.
De Zerbi was appointed at the end of March, becoming Tottenham’s third manager this season after Thomas Frank and Igor Tudor. In six matches, his record stands at two wins, two draws and two losses.
He accepted the role amid the relegation battle and has repeatedly said he will stay with the club even if they are relegated.
According to Britain’s Daily Mail, ahead of the Everton match on May 24 De Zerbi said, “I’ll be clear about everything. It’s still an honor to be Tottenham’s manager. Even if we’re fighting a relegation battle, that doesn’t matter.”
He added, “I see football as more than a table or a single match’s level. Clearly, we’re all working for Tottenham’s future.”
Tottenham’s fate will be decided soon. Can the club — which has never been relegated since the Premier League began — avoid the drop? Or will it return to the second tier for the first time since the 1977–78 season?
