Tottenham on Monday offered their "thoughts and condolences" to interim boss Igor Tudor following the death of his father.
The 47-year-old Croatian did not undertake post-match media duties following Spurs' 3-0 home defeat by Nottingham Forest on Sunday after he was informed of a family bereavement.
Assistant Bruno Saltor stepped in and declined to give further details on Tudor's "family issue".
"Everyone at Tottenham Hotspur is deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Igor Tudor's father Mario," said a club statement on Monday.
"Our thoughts and condolences go out to Igor and his family during this incredibly difficult time."
