Tottenham is expected to replace Postecoglou in the end.

England's Football 365 reported on the 2nd (Korea time) 'Tottenham has decided to replace Postecoglou'

Football365 said: "'Tottenham have decided to replace Postecoglou, and they have a major target to replace him. It has been reported that Postecoglou could be replaced even if he consistently wins the Europa League. After an outstanding first season at Totton M, he came under immense criticism this season, finishing 17th in the English Premier League (EPL). His performance was not good enough and he was sluggish in the league. Winning the Europa League alone did not save Postecoglou. According to the news, the club has already decided to replace Postecoglou.

Postecoglou's possible replacement has already been discussed since the end of the season. Britain's BBC said 'What is clear to Tottenham is that if leadership change is needed, it must be done smoothly. Until the Europa League final, there were many doubts about Tottenham. However, Tottenham have become a much more attractive option for managers ahead of their qualification for the European Champions League.

Tottenham, which fell to 17th place with the worst performance in the league this season, was eliminated from all competitions except the Europa League, including the League Cup and the FA Cup. 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.

Reporter David Onstein, who already boasts the highest public confidence in the European football transfer market ahead of the Europa League final, also said, `It is unlikely that Postecoglou will remain. Regardless of the final result, Tottenham will be looking for a change in the summer. Tottenham's situation was so bad in the league this season. There is an opinion that the club did not perform as expected. No matter what happens in the final, there is a high possibility that a new coach will be appointed in the summer."

However, the factor that hangs over Tottenham's leadership is that Postecoglou gained support by giving the team the trophy this season. Tottenham won the Europa League (UEL) final 1-0 against Manchester United in the 2024-2025 season at Estadio San Mames in Bilbao, Spain, on May 22, winning the trophy for the first time in 17 years. It was the first time since winning the League Cup in the 2007-2008 season. With this victory, he also confirmed his advance to the European Champions League (UCL) next season.

Since winning, Tottenham has enjoyed great joy with tremendous cheers, and the prospect of Postecoglou staying on the team has also increased. Coach Postecoglou also did not hide his will to stay. Postecoglou told fans at a bus parade in London after the victory that Season 3 was more fun than Season 2 and that he wanted them to support Tottenham for another season, according to the BBC, a British public broadcaster. The BBC also shed light on Postecoglou's confidence, saying, `Postecoglou has stated that he will not put a limit on what can be achieved.'

Tottenham may also choose to remain in office considering various problems such as penalties. Postecoglou's contract with Tottenham still has about two years left, and if Tottenham replaces Postecoglou, he will also have to pay a huge penalty. Moreover, if the coach who won this season is replaced, there is a possibility that fans will pour out criticism.

However, Tottenham seems to be already in talks with the new coach candidate despite this situation. Santi Auna, a reporter from France's Foot Mercato, said 'Tottenham held discussions with manager Thomas Frank in preparation for the replacement of the coach. There were also internal discussions on various options' and explained Tottenham's situation.

Frank, who has led Brentford since 2018, is one of the competent coaches who is challenging Brentford's promotion to the English Premier League (EPL), staying in the first division, and even advancing to the European tournament this season. In particular, he was recognized for his ability to find players in Brentford, which has a limited budget, and his tactical style is also well-received as a coach who finds the best way.

Britain's Tottenham Hotspur News also mentioned the possibility of Xavi Hernandez being appointed. Tottenham Hotspur News said there is still a lot of uncertainty about Postecoglou's future and that Xavi could join Tottenham after winning the Europa League. For Tottenham, this is the critical opportunity to recruit a great coach like Xavi.

Xavi left Barcelona at the end of last season and is now unemployed. Although he has been involved with several clubs this summer, he has not returned to the manager's post. Xavi, who has led Barcelona for the past three seasons, has won La Liga in the 2022-2023 season. For Tottenham, it could be a good enough managerial candidate.

Postecoglou is expected to remain despite the achievement of leading Tottenham to the top of the European competition. Attention is also focusing on which coach will take over Tottenham if he leaves.
