Carlos Queiroz interested in Tottenham Hotspur job

Former Manchester United assistant Carlos Queiroz has revealed his interest in speaking to Tottenham Hotspur about the vacant managerial post at White Hart Lane.

Tim Sherwood has been in temporary charge of the North London side since they parted company with Andre Villas-Boas last week.

"Absolutely," the 60-year-old replied when asked if he was interested. "Tottenham is a club I really appreciate a lot and I have great admiration for.

"One of my coaching dreams is to get back to English football."

The Portuguese coach has been in charge of the Iran national team since 2011.
