Tottenham Hotspur coach, Ange Postecoglou is preparing to lead his English Premier League team on a historic tour of Melbourne this week.
South Melbourne legend, Postecoglou said he was proud to return to Melbourne where his dream first began.
“To be able to bring Tottenham Hotspur to my hometown of Melbourne is truly special,” Postecoglou said.
“The Premier League is the best league in the world, we’ve got an exciting, young team and this gives our fans Down Under the opportunity to come and see some of the biggest names in world football playing a style of football that they will enjoy.”
According to Herald Sun, Postecoglou will rouse his Spurs stars for an open training session at AAMI Park expected to draw up to 10,000 fans who will part with $10 for the occasion.
