Tottenham identify preferred Ange Postecoglou replacements as Mauricio Pochettino admits desire to return


Tottenham Hotspur is reported that their options should be made to the company with Poseteclou at the end of the season.

In 2023, Postecoglou enjoyed a whirlworm in his time in North London, which was unbeaten for several weeks in the first ten Premier League games of his debut campaign and the tip of the table.

But 2024/25 was a different story.

Postecoglou pointed out that in his second season he always won a trophy in every former club in which he was. Although this is still possible with Spurs in the Europa League, a hot time has led 15 defeats against 29 Premier League games and branded by the manager as a “unacceptable”.

The sheer number of injuries in the squad that Poseteclou had to deal with was undoubtedly a factor for gliding into the table, but the pressure was avoidable.

If the Spurs hierarchy decides that a new manager is the best way, it is Daily Telegraph has reported that Andoni Iraola and Marco Silva will be “among the leading candidates”.

Iraola was appointed by Bournemouth in 2023 and, after a slow start last season, scored a 12th place in the Premier League and now has the cherries on the hunt for European football.

Silva has been known to the English audience for almost a decade after he was appointed Hull City in 2017. The Portuguese had subsequent spells in Watford and Everton, but since 2021 he has been his best success and restored the huts as a top flight club.

The uncertainty about the future of Postecoglous is also at the same time as the Spurs legend Mauricio Pochettino repeated his wish to return to the club at some point in his career.

Pochettino, responsible for Spurs’ Best League in the past 60 years and her only appearance in a European Cup final, had a challenging season with the competitors Chelsea in 2023/24 and then signed a two -year contract to become head coach of the United States by 2026.

The Argentinian insisted that Spurs chairman Daniel Levy does not give bad blood, although he was only released five months after the 2019 Champions League final.

“The appreciation between both of us was there and [continues] be there. [From] The day after I left Tottenham, we have a very good relationship, “said Pochettino to Sky Sports News.

“When I left the club, I remember in an interview with the inscription” I would return to Tottenham one day. “Because I’m in the United States, I would say that I won’t talk about it. But me [say]After six years I still feel that in my heart, yes, I want to come back one day. “
