Mohamed Salah sends message to Postecoglou instantly as Tottenham win Europa League
Liverpool forward Mohamed Salah has reacted as Ange Postecoglou won the Europa League title as Tottenham beat Manchester United.
Spurs beat Ruben Amorim’s team in Bilbao on Wednesday (21 May), with Luke Shaw’s own goal enough to seal silverware for the Australian manager.
Postecoglou was pumped up at San Mames, as he seemed to be taunting the Red Devils’ supporters after the North London outfit took the lead.
The Lilywhites managed to hold on to their advantage after the break, ending their 17-year wait for a trophy, with Salah instantly sending the ex-Celtic boss a message.
Tottenham congratulated as Salah makes Postecoglou point
Salah congratulated the North London outfit after they beat Man United in the Europa League final.
The Liverpool forward has credited Postecoglou for living up to his word of winning silverware in his second season.
| Stats | Tottenham | Man United |
| Posession | 27 | 73 |
| Shots on target | 1 | 6 |
| Expected goals (xG) | 1.01 | 0.85 |
| Big chances | 1 | 3 |
At the start of the campaign, the 59-year-old head coach had hinted at ending Spurs’ trophy drought in the 2024/25 campaign.
Salah wrote on X (21 May): “He did say he’d win in his second season. Congratulations!”
Spurs get major boost after Champions League qualification
Spurs will play Champions League football next season, but it remains to be seen who’ll lead them in the competition.
Daniel Levy has considered sacking Postecoglou but was undoubtedly waiting to see the outcome in the Europa League.
The North London outfit sacrificed their prospects in the Premier League for European glory, and fans will be delighted to see they’ve pulled it off.
Tottenham supporters won’t care about what’s happened in the English top flight after their team won a trophy this season.
The Europa League victory overshadows how bad the North Londoners have been domestically this season, and Postecoglou’s future will now be difficult to predict.
A Spurs loss would’ve inevitably meant the Australian manager’s exit from N17, but now Levy has significant plans to make as the Lilywhites will play Champions League football.
Sacking the manager could potentially lead to an outcry from the fanbase, who’ve been waiting for this moment.
N17 will have a party atmosphere for the coming weeks, and then the ex-Celtic boss’ future will be clear.
