### Tottenham Hotspur Parts Ways with Manager Ange Postecoglou After Two Seasons

Tottenham Hotspur announced the departure of manager Ange Postecoglou, ending his tenure after two seasons with the club. The decision comes as Spurs gear up to start the 2025-26 season against Paris Saint-Germain in the UEFA Super Cup.

In a statement on their website, Spurs confirmed that Postecoglou had been relieved of his duties following a comprehensive review of the team's performance. The club acknowledged both the highs and lows of his stint, emphasizing the need for a managerial change despite the Europa League triumph over Manchester United.

Postecoglou, who previously found success in Celtic, was unable to replicate consistent success in the Premier League. A series of long-term injuries plagued the team, contributing to a disappointing domestic campaign that saw Tottenham finish a dismal 17th in the league. Chairman Daniel Levy found this unacceptable, leading to the managerial shakeup.

During his two-year spell, Postecoglou led Spurs to a mixed record of 47 wins, 15 draws, and 39 losses. While his tenure included the remarkable achievement of winning the Europa League, the overall inconsistency in league performance overshadowed these successes.

In a heartfelt statement, the club expressed gratitude for the attacking style of football that Postecoglou reinstated and his role in adding a European trophy to the club’s cabinet. Postecoglou left with a message of pride, emphasizing the hard work and dedication that led to memorable moments, including the historic night in Bilbao.

Spurs' search for a new head coach is underway, with the club emphasizing the need for a fresh approach to compete on multiple fronts. Despite the recent challenges, the club remains optimistic about its future, building upon the foundation laid during Postecoglou’s time.

As Tottenham Hotspur moves into a new chapter, they do so with appreciation for the strides made over the past two years, ready to embrace new challenges and continue their pursuit of footballing success.
