Tottenham SACK Ange Postecoglou despite Europa League triumph as clear favourite to replace him emerges

Tottenham SACK Ange Postecoglou despite Europa League triumph as clear favourite to replace him emerges.

Tottenham have decided to part ways with manager Ange Postecoglou and a clear favourite has already emerged to replace him.

Spurs endured a miserable domestic campaign last season as they finished in 17th place, with a measly 38 points after winning just 11 league games.

But the club somewhat salvaged their 2024/25 campaign by winning the Europa League, resulting in Champions League qualification.

Spurs beat Manchester United 1-0 in last month’s final in Bilbao.

Despite leading the North London outfit to their first piece of silverware in 17 years, Postecoglou has been sacked.

That’s according to the Telegraph, who claim Postecoglou has been relieved of his duties despite winning the Europa League.

It comes after a week of deliberation by Daniel Levy.

And it appears Spurs have already lined up their replacement.

They are eyeing a move for Brentford’s Thomas Frank, who held talks with the club to discuss a potential switch.

Spurs are believed to be giving serious thought to Frank.

Brentford appointed Frank in December 2016, having initially joined as the club’s assistant head coach.

He eventually landed the main job when he replaced Dean Smith in October 2018.

The Dane has done a stellar job at Brentford, establishing the Bees as a Premier League outfit, having guided them to promotion in the 2020/21 season following their Championship play-off final victory over Swansea City.

Postecoglou, meanwhile, leaves Spurs having spent two seasons at the club.

He guided the club to a fifth place finish in his debut season following his arrival from Celtic.
