  WHAT HAPPENED?

  Despite leading the North London side to a Europa League triumph over the Red Devils, whispers around the club suggest the Australian might not be in charge come next season, as revealed by The 2-1 victory not only brought them their first piece of silverware in 17 years, but also ended a 41-year wait for a European title. The win secured a place in next season’s UEFA Champions League and set up a UEFA Super Cup clash in August against either Inter Milan or Paris Saint-Germain.

  THE BIGGER PICTURE

  With one year still left on his deal, Postecoglou’s continuation as head coach appears to hinge entirely on chairman Daniel Levy's judgement. It has been reported that the top boss has already begun exploring other managerial options, including Fulham’s Marco Silva, hinting that a managerial change could be on the horizon.

• DID YOU KNOW?

  In the aftermath of their Europa League success in Spain, many Tottenham players were tight-lipped about their manager’s future. Most avoided addressing Postecoglou’s potential departure directly, instead offering supportive words and stressing that the night was a moment for joy, not speculation. Still, reports from inside the dressing room indicate that many squad members do not expect Postecoglou to remain in charge beyond the summer. While there’s admiration for what he achieved, the feeling of finality seems to be growing.

  WHAT NEXT?

  If this season does mark the end of Postecoglou’s time at Tottenham, he leaves on a high note. The 58-year-old has developed a reputation for achieving silverware in the second season of his managerial stints — a pattern he extended with Spurs. He has publicly expressed his desire to see through the project he began upon arriving from Celtic in 2023, and hasn’t closed the door on continuing his work in North London. For now, though, all eyes will be on Sunday’s Premier League finale against Brighton — what could be his last outing in the Spurs dugout.
