Tottenham Hotspur are set for a season-defining call over whether to stick or twist with manager Ange Postecoglou, who's just guided the club to their first major trophy in 17 years whilst also enduring their worst ever Premier League season.
Daniel Levy makes Ange Postecoglou decision at Tottenham
The Australian's side recorded a record-breaking 22 defeats in the league, which is their highest total in a single Premier League campaign, but their triumph in the Europa League was crucial in more ways than one.
After beating Man United 1-0 during a tense final in Bilbao, Spurs won their first European piece of silverware since 1984 whilst putting an end to their 17-year wait for a trophy overall - giving Daniel Levy some major thinking to do when it comes to Postecoglou's long-term future.
Reports suggest that Tottenham have started doing their due-diligence by opening discussions with managerial targets, in the event they do decide to sack Postecoglou, and an extremely reliable Spurs source, Paul O'Keefe, actually claims that Levy has already made his decision behind-the-scenes.
O'Keefe has heard from his sources that the Lilywhites chairman knows what direction he wants to take with Postecoglou, but he's yet to communicate his call to those within Hotspur Way.
Reliable media outlets report that Postecoglou will learn his fate this week (ESPN), with the 59-year-old again suggesting he wants to remain at Spurs.
"I didn't want us to just enjoy the moment," said Postecoglou in an interview with Australian Story, during a family holiday in Greece.
"I also wanted us to think about what's next, you know - don't settle for this. We've got a taste of it now. My players have got a taste for it. The club's got a taste for it. Well, let's make sure we're back here again."
Tottenham hold "multiple meetings" with Brentford boss Thomas Frank
According to recent reports, Brentford boss Thomas Frank is becoming a more concrete target.
The "class" Dane's contract includes an £8 million release clause, which Levy can choose to activate this summer. GiveMeSport's Ben Jacobs reports that Tottenham have held "multiple meetings" with Frank, who's a leading candidate to replace Postecoglou.
Frank has done a solid job with very little resources in terms of transfer investment, an undoubtedly attractive aspect of his CV to Levy, with Man City boss Pep Guardiola also calling him "one of the best".
"They are an extraordinary team," said Guardiola. "What they do always makes sense. Every corner is a headache. They are compact. This season, they have a high press. Thomas is one of the best."
