Tottenham Hotspur manager Ange Postecoglou is under increasing pressure and could be sacked before the end of January following a poor run of form, according to Sporting News.
The Australian coach, who has overseen Spurs’ 15th-place standing in the Premier League after a 3-2 defeat to Everton, faces a crucial few days ahead of talks with the club’s hierarchy. Tottenham have gone winless in their last six league matches and have only one victory in their last 10 outings since November.
Despite the tough situation, Postecoglou remains determined.
After today’s loss at Goodison Park, he said, “The situation we’re in, will eventually dissipate. I certainly hope and believe it will. We’ll give ourselves the opportunity to get consistency in performance and results. I haven’t lost belief or determination to turn it around and the players showed in the second half they haven’t either.”
Postecoglou, who signed a four-year contract in 2023 that runs until June 2027, may face a compensation settlement if dismissed by club chairman Daniel Levy.
Tottenham’s Carabao Cup semifinal second-leg clash at Liverpool on February 6, with Spurs leading 1-0 from the first leg, could be pivotal in determining his future.
While no immediate replacements have been linked, former Borussia Dortmund manager Edin Terzic and ex-England boss Gareth Southgate have emerged as potential candidates.
