Tottenham’s manager, Ange Postecoglou, is fighting to avoid the sack as his team faces Manchester United in the Europa League final.
Despite the possibility of winning the trophy and ending the club’s 17-year trophy drought, Postecoglou’s future at Tottenham remains uncertain.
Postecoglou Ange’s job security is under threat due to Tottenham’s poor performance in the Premier League. The team is set to finish 17th, their worst finish since being relegated in 1976-77.
However, Postecoglou has managed to steer the team to the Europa League final, and a win against Manchester United could secure a spot in next season’s Champions League.
There has been speculation about Postecoglou’s future at Tottenham, with several top coaches linked to the job. Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy has not been shy about making managerial changes in the past, and Postecoglou’s fate may depend on the outcome of the Europa League final.
Postecoglou has pointed to the injury-ravaged squad as a reason for the team’s poor performance. Several key players, including James Maddison, Dejan Kulusevski, and Lucas Bergvall, will miss the final due to injuries. Despite the challenges, Postecoglou has expressed his admiration for the players and hopes they will get the reward they deserve.
Tottenham midfielder Yves Bissouma has come out in support of Postecoglou, describing him as “like a dad or uncle” who always protects the players. Bissouma believes that Postecoglou has a top mentality and understands the ups and downs of football.
The Europa League final is a crucial match for Tottenham, and a win could secure a spot in next season’s Champions League. For Postecoglou, a win could be the key to keeping his job, but it’s uncertain whether it will be enough to save him from the sack.
