Tottenham has performed poorly under Postecoglou this season, and is likely to change its coach after this season. The British Telegraph reported that `Enze Postecoglou is expected to leave Tottenham regardless of the outcome in the Europa League after the end of this season`Tottenham is approaching the club's record for most losses in a season, but if it wins the Europa League and advances to the Champions League next season, it can save the season. However, regardless of the outcome of the Europa League, there is a growing possibility that he will leave Tottenham by dismissal or separation under mutual agreement'
Considering Tottenham's current situation, it is difficult to avoid responsibility for serious poor performance even if they win the Europa League. He was eliminated from various championship opportunities such as the League Cup and FA Cup, and fell to 16th place with disastrous results in the league. The team's leaders initially wanted to maintain Postecoglou's system, but they are now weighing on the replacement as they watch their performance decline.
As the separation from Postecoglou approached, attention was also paid to the new coach candidate. The previously named directors candidates were mostly emerging masters or managers in the middle and lower ranks. Bournemouth's Andoni Iraola, Fulham's Marco Silva and Brentford's manager Thomas Frank were mentioned.

Terzic was also listed as a strong candidate for replacement. Terzic, who began his leadership career with Dortmund's youth team immediately after retiring in 2010, has since returned as Dortmund's head coach after passing through Besiktas and West Ham.
Terzic, who took over as the official head coach after serving as the acting coach at Dortmund in the 2022-2023 season, achieved the result of elevating Dortmund to the European Champions League final last season. After the end of the season, he resigned as manager after suffering disappointing performances in the league and feuds with some players. For Tottenham, it has reached the final of the European competition, and the addition of Terzic, who has experience in running a big club, can be positive enough.
Postecoglou and Tottenham are closing in after this season, and interest in alternative candidates continues. Fans are also expected to pay attention to whether Terzic will lead Tottenham in the next season with Son Heung-min.
