Ange Postecoglou was dismissed as manager by Tottenham just weeks after leading the team to their first trophy in 17 years, the Europa League title. His firing followed a dismal Premier League season that saw the club finish 17th. Outrage from fans and former players marred the decision, highlighting the turmoil under chairman Daniel Levy, who has now sacked five managers in six years. While there are options for Postecoglou's next club, he may prefer to stay in Europe to further his career after this controversial exit.
After much speculation, Tottenham confirmed on Saturday morning (AEST) it had opted to relieve Postecoglou of his duties - the harsh sacking has prompted outrage from Spurs fans.
Postecoglou described himself as "unemployable" during a hiatus from coaching in the late 2000s after he lost his job as coach of the Young Socceroos.
...with the Europa League trophy as a feather in his cap, that won't be the case now and Postecoglou is bound to land on his feet one way or another.
It remains to be seen where that will be, but he will likely wish to remain in Europe and prove his critics wrong in the Premier League at another club.
