Ange Postecoglou may make a swift return to management after his Tottenham sacking as he is now on the radar of a club that won the AFC Champions League last year.
The Australian walked out of Tottenham Hotspur with his head held high after achieving something that the likes of Antonio Conte, Jose Mourinho, Mauricio Pochettino and Harry Redknapp failed to do: lead the club to silverware.
It was reported that Postecoglou received interest from other clubs less than 24 hours after his sacking, which shows how in-demand he is.
It has even been alleged over recent days that one unnamed Premier League club has explored a move for Postecoglou ahead of the 2025-25 season.
Ange Postecoglou is being eyed by Al-Ahli after Tottenham sack
The Telegraph have now claimed that the former Spurs boss has now emerged as a target for Saudi Arabian club Al-Ahli.
Al-Ahli won the AFC Champions League last year, beating J-League side Kawasaki Frontale in the final, and they boast the likes of Ivan Toney, Roberto Firmino, Riyad Mahrez and Edouard Mendy in their ranks.
The report says that the Saudi club are eyeing a move for Postecoglou should they lose manager Matthias Jaissle, who is being tipped for a return to Europe.

David Ornstein went one step further and revealed that Al-Ahli have now made contact with Postecoglou about the job.
He wrote: ‘Al Ahli make contact with Ange Postecoglou about becoming head coach, if Matthias Jaissle exits. Former Tottenham Hotspur boss among candidates being considered in event of Al-Ahli managerial change. Xavi, another option.’
Could Postecoglou be in line for a reunion with Heung-min Son?
This update regarding Postecoglou comes amidst rumours that Heung-min Son could be on his way to the Saudi Pro League this summer.
According to reports, Son’s representatives are currently in talks with Saudi clubs regarding a big-money move to the Middle East.
Should Postecoglou end up as the head coach of Al-Ahli, he might potentially help persuade the South Korean to move to the Jeddah-based club.
