Following Harry Redknapp's resignation on Wednesday night, Sports Mole sizes up the contenders for the White Hart Lane vacancy.

Following Harry Redknapp's departure on Wednesday night, Tottenham Hotspur have found themselves back in the market for a new manager.

The Spurs job can be considered as one of the more glamourous in the Premier League due to the club's location, transfer funds and impressive roster of talent.

With a number of names already in the mix, Sports Mole sizes up some of the contenders for the role at White Hart Lane.

David Moyes:
The favourite. Moyes has worked wonders in the 10 years that he's been at Everton, but a well-known lack of cash has been a constant source of frustration for the Scot. Could he now take that next step into the Premier League big time?
Odds: 1/2

Roberto Martinez:
Despite looking to have secured his future at Wigan Athletic, Martinez could be tempted to 'upgrade' with Spurs. The Spaniard is a young manager who likes to play attractive football and he could fit right in at the cosmopolitan Lane. However, a worry over his lack of experience at a 'big' club may hold him back.
Odds: 3/1

Fabio Capello:
The former England coach has made no secret of the fact that he would like to manage at club level in this country. His record in Serie A speaks for itself, with success coming at Roma, Juventus and AC Milan. Plus, you get the feeling that he would love to show the Football Association that it was a mistake to cross him.
Odds: 8/1

Rafa Benitez:
Similar to Capello, Benitez has told anyone that will listen that he really wants to manage in England again. His tenure at Liverpool may have ground to a disastrous halt, but let's remember that he pushed Manchester United very close in the title race in 2009. He still feels that he has a lot to offer and could keep the good times rolling for Spurs.
Odds: 10/1

Gus Poyet:
The former Spurs midfielder recently claimed that he was happy at Brighton & Hove Albion. However, despite the magic that he's worked down on the south coast, the 44-year-old could well be tempted to take the leap into the Premier League. He would be moving to a club who are financially secure, with some fantastic players already at his disposal.
Odds: 20/1
