De Zerbi, who has signed a long-term deal in north London, is keen to build an elite backroom team as he begins a high-pressure rebuild at Spurs.
Nesta’s potential arrival is seen as a strategic move to address Tottenham’s biggest weakness this season, their defense.
Alessandro Nesta could bring winning mentality to Tottenham
There are few defenders in modern football who can boast the pedigree of Alessandro Nesta.
AC Milan legend Nesta won the Champions League twice (2003 and 2007) and was a key figure in Italy’s victory at the 2006 FIFA World Cup.
Since moving into management, Nesta has managed clubs such as Miami FC, Perugia, Frosinone, Reggiana and most recently Monza.
His time at Monza was checkered and the club was eventually relegated from Serie A.
However, his defensive expertise is still highly valued, making him an ideal complement to De Zerbi’s attacking philosophy.
Remaining in the Premier League is top priority for Roberto De Zerbi
Nesta’s potential arrival highlights the urgency of Tottenham’s current predicament.
With just seven games left and the club sitting just one point above the drop zone, De Zerbi knows he needs a balance between high-octane De Zerbi balls and defensive steel.
Tottenham have conceded 50 goals this season and Spurs have two world-class centre-backs in Christian Romero and Micky van de Ven, but Nesta will be expected to bring out the best in both.
If Nesta accepts the role, he will be immediately thrown into the fire and his first task will be to organize a defense capable of keeping a clean sheet against Sunderland on April 12th.
For the Spurs, the math is simple. Nesta’s experience could be the difference between a narrow escape or a disastrous fall from the championship.
