Ange Postecoglou will remain in charge of Tottenham for the rest of the season
A report has explained why Tottenham Hotspur are not considering sacking Ange Postecoglou, even if they are to be knocked out of the Europa League by Eintracht Frankfurt.
At the very least, it looks like Postecoglou needs to win the Europa League to keep his Tottenham job beyond this summer.
In fact, some reports over recent days have claimed that Postecoglou could be sacked by Friday if Spurs do not progress to the semifinals of the Europa League.
However, a fresh update has now claimed that Tottenham Hotspur will only make their ‘big decision’ about the Australian at the end of the season, with the club not wanting to rush into one right now.
Why Daniel Levy will wait until the summer to make a managerial change
This update comes from TEAMtalk, who claim that even winning the Europa League is not likely to guarantee Postecoglou’s position at Spurs beyond the summer.
However, the club are not thinking about making a change right now and will only make a final decision on the 59-year-old at the end of the season.
The report says that the Spurs hierarchy are planning to conduct a detailed end-of-season review in May, which will look into Postecoglou’s position as well as other aspects of the club.
It is explained that Daniel Levy does recognise that the 59-year-old has been dealt a difficult hand in terms of injuries this season. While Tottenham have begun their succession planning, they do not plan to act before the campaign comes to an end.
Another reason that the club have decided to wait until the summer is that their top managerial targets will only entertain any offers once the campaign comes to an end.
Should Tottenham keep Ange Postecoglou if they get knocked out by Frankfurt?
Postecoglou would have likely been let go by now if Tottenham were not still in the Europa League.
Clearly, Daniel Levy and the Spurs hierarchy do not want to cause any disruptions in the dressing room right now as the players remain focused on going all the way in the competition.
However, should they be knocked out this Thursday, it might make sense to put Postecoglou out of his misery and put Ryan Mason in charge until the summer.
