Ange Postecoglou has told Fenerbahçe that he is awaiting offers from Europe’s top five leagues as he seeks his next job following his departure from Tottenham Hotspur.
That’s according to journalist Yağız Sabuncuoğlu, who reports that the former Tottenham boss has brushed Fenerbahçe off for the time being.
The Turkish side are on the hunt for a replacement for Jose Mourinho after the Portuguese coach was sacked a week ago following their failure to make it to the Champions League proper.
He was a big-name appointment last summer and guided Fenerbahçe to second in the Turkish Super Lig last season but the failure to provide Champions League football, with them eliminated by Benfica in the play-offs this season, bringing his time at the club to an end.
Postecoglou is one of several high-profile names that the Turkish club have looked at, with him still available following his departure from Tottenham at the end of last season.
It appears that Fenerbahçe have spoken to the former Tottenham boss, alongside Luciano Spalletti, but Sabuncuoğlu says they’ve been turned down for the time being.
“Ange Postecoglou informed Fenerbahçe that he was awaiting offers from several clubs in the top five leagues,” he said.
“Luciano Spalletti, meanwhile, indicated that he was not considering coaching a team at this time. Consequently, negotiations did not progress, and no formal offers were made to either individual.”
