Tottenham Faces £4M Compensation Bill Sacking Ange Postecoglou

Tottenham Hotspur is considering sacking manager Ange Postecoglou despite his success in ending the club's 17-year trophy drought by winning the Europa League and securing Champions League qualification. The decision comes after a poor Premier League season where Spurs finished 17th, raising questions about his future at the club. Chairman Daniel Levy faces a compensation bill of around £4 million to sack Postecoglou, who has two years remaining on his contract, plus an additional £2 million bonus for the Europa League victory. Furthermore, the total cost of replacing Postecoglou, including buying out potential successors like Brentford’s Thomas Frank or Fulham’s Marco Silva, could approach £10 million. The club is also undergoing a significant reshuffle, with key figures such as executive director Donna Cullen and first-team coach Ryan Mason already departing. Postecoglou has returned from holiday and is expected to soon receive clarity on his position as Tottenham navigates this transitional phase.
