Ange Postecoglou ‘to leave Tottenham’ after what Levy has done already
Tottenham are yet to decide Ange Postecoglou’s future as manager.
There have been questions surrounding the boss’ security throughout the campaign and, despite winning the Europa League, that has not quietened.
A 17th-placed finish in the Premier League has left plenty of questions being asked about whether the Australian is the man to guide the Lilywhites into the Champions League.
In the meantime, the likes of Thomas Frank are being linked with a move to north London, should a vacancy arise.
Gabby Agbonlahor shares Postecoglou verdict
Postecoglou said he was going on holiday once Tottenham’s season was up and he was not told about what his future held before going.
That has given Daniel Levy plenty of time to think about what he thinks is the right decision to make regarding any progress.
Although Postecoglou delivered a trophy in his second season as promised, the pressure of Champions League football alongside a need to do better in the league next season means there is plenty at stake.

| 38 | 11 | 5 | 22 |
Therefore, the chief needs to make a call on whether he can really support Postecoglou financially, or if he would feel more confident giving the backing to someone else.
It has emerged that Levy is looking more likely to lean towards the latter option, meaning Postecoglou could be out of work.
Speaking live on talkSPORT (2 June, 8:55 am), Gabby Agbonlahor admitted he thinks a decision has already been made, as he said: “My gut feeling is, like you said, he’s not mentioned anything yet about him keeping his job. That speaks volumes for me.
“I think they will make a change, and a new manager will come in. Thomas Frank or Marco Silva are options they are looking at, so I don’t think he stays, mate.”
Frank a good option for Tottenham
If Levy does make the choice to part ways with Postecoglou, Frank could be the right option to go for instead.
Although the Dane doesn’t have any Champions League experience, he is a well-established top-flight manager who is surely deserving of the step up to more responsibility soon.
What’s more, Frank’s track record for developing players is strong, and this could well excite Levy as it could lower the expectations of constantly paying higher money for instantly ready talent.
As Agbonlahor says, a lack of movement so far doesn’t look too positive regarding Postecoglou’s future, but if the pair do part ways, you would expect Levy to be ready to strike right away.
