Postecoglou sack: Alan Brazil reveals what he’s been told about Tottenham
Ange Postecoglou’s future continues to be the subject of speculation at Tottenham.
The Australian has taken his side to the Europa League final and could be set to end the 17-year trophy drought for the North London outfit.
However, a shocking domestic campaign could see him sacked even if he brings success back to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
Brazil reveals Postecoglou stance at Tottenham
Daniel Levy will have a tough decision to make on the future of the former Celtic boss at the end of the season.
The most likely outcome seems to be that the two parties will go their separate ways regardless of the potential European success.
Alan Brazil believes that Postecoglou might have already been told that he is gone, no matter what happens in the final.
Speaking on talkSPORT (9 May, 6:22 am), he said: “People have said to me, whatever happens, he will leave.
“I don’t know if that is true or not, how can he leave if he gets in the Champions League and wins the UEFA Cup.
“Maybe, he knows something that we don’t know, maybe he has already talked to someone else, maybe they have said to him, whatever happens, we are relieving you of your duties.”
Postecoglou must stay at Tottenham if they win a trophy
It is unfathomable that Spurs could sack their manager after winning a European competition but it is a very realistic prospect, with them sitting 16th in the Premier League.
Levy is under huge pressure in N17, with supporters consistently protesting the way that he runs their club and demanding significant change.
| Opposition | Round | Score | Venue |
| AZ Alkmaar | Round of 16 first leg | 1-0 (L) | AFAS Stadion |
| AZ Alkmaar | Round of 16 second leg | 3-1 (W) | Tottenham Hotspur Stadium |
| Eintracht Frankfurt | Quarter-final first leg | 1-1 (D) | Tottenham Hotspur Stadium |
| Eintracht Frankfurt | Quarter-final second leg | 1-0 (W) | Deutsche Bank Park |
| Bodo/Glimt | Semi-final first leg | 3-1 (W) | Tottenham Hotspur Stadium |
| Bodo/Glimt | Semi-final second leg | 0-2 (W) | Aspmyra Stadion |
However, to sack the man in the dugout after delivering a rare success would be a step backwards, he should be allowed to build on that and potentially take the Lilywhites to even higher heights if he can bring a first trophy in almost 20 years.
Winning a trophy would completely change the atmosphere in North London and lift a truly awful campaign, which has seen the Australian bicker with supporters and players such as James Maddison, into one of the greatest in the club’s history.
If they win a first trophy since the League Cup triumph in 2008, the toxicity and bitterness that has engulfed Postecoglou in recent months will be wiped out in an instant.
Levy would be silly to sack the first successful manager in Spurs’ recent history but you never know with him at the helm.
He may deny the former Australia defender to build on the success, even if a new manager is not guaranteed to take the club in a better direction.
