Ange Postecoglou could be in line for another Premier League job after departing Tottenham.
The Australian faced the sack from Daniel Levy at the end of the season as the chairman pulled the trigger after a 17th-place finish.
This put to an end a largely dreadful season, where the 59-year-old came under heavy scrutiny and was constantly linked with the sack from North London.
With Thomas Frank now in the Lilywhites hotseat, the Dane could soon come up against Postecoglou as another job in the Premier League could be on the table.
Postecoglou next steps emerge after Tottenham exit
It was clear towards the end of his tenure, the ex-Celtic man grew further frustrated with the media and certain questions were aimed at him.

This resulted in an outburst in emotion when Spurs lifted the Europa League, despite that not being enough to keep his job in N17.
With that being said, it will be interesting to see where the Aussie lands for his next role after the pressure cooker of the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium with reports already saying that an unnamed Premier League club is lining up a move to hire him.
Now, a period of rest could be utilised by Postecoglou as former Brentford and Leicester City manager Martin Allen believes he will want to assess what went wrong with the Lilywhites.
This could then make way for a Premier League move in the near future, as there is likely to be interest in his signature.
“There’s no doubt that Postecoglou will want a break,” Allen told Tottenham News.
“He’s just done two years, which were very stressful, especially last season, with the results being terrible. He will need a break without a shadow of a doubt.
“He’ll also need a chance to sit down with his staff to review and think about what they could have done better and how they can improve.
“He needs to have a good look at himself before getting into a new job, so I would be surprised if he goes straight back in somewhere.
“I think Premier League clubs will be interested in him, he’s done a lot of good things.
“He’s certainly got great guts and tremendous courage to go through what he’s gone through at Tottenham. He’s been successful everywhere he’s been.”
Postecoglou could land Premier League job after Tottenham
There is no doubt that there were elements of the ex-Melbourne Victory manager’s reign in N17 which were largely positive.
The Australians’ work with young players and desire to play football in an attractive manner certainly made him a likeable figure for the most part.
This saw him get the best out of starlets like Archie Gray and Lucas Bergvall in his most recent campaign, something which could serve Spurs well for many years to come.
With that in mind, there is bound to be a number of sides interested in his signature, with Postecoglou already linked with a move to Leeds United.
