Ange Postecoglou’s future continues to hang in the balance after the Tottenham hierarchy held a meeting about their managerial position following their Europa League success.
Postecoglou has said that he still has unfinished business at Tottenham, thus firmly putting the ball in Daniel Levy’s court.
However, reports over the last few days have indicated that there could still be a managerial change at Spurs this summer, with the Australian himself thought to feel that his chances of remaining in the job next season are low.
Now, a fresh report has given us some insight into what Tottenham Hotspur’s decision-makers are thinking about the 59-year-old’s future following their historic success.
Ange Postecoglou’s Tottenham future remains up in the air
Football Insider claim that the Tottenham boss’s future remains up in the air and that there is still a very realistic chance that he will be let go by the North London club.
The outlet claims that in the wake of winning the Europa League, Levy and the Tottenham board have held talks over Potecoglou’s future.
There is still thought to be a feeling at Hotspur Way that they have to make a change after a dismal domestic season.

The Europa League win has thus not offered Postecoglou any guarantees of keeping his job, with the decision expected to be finalised in due course.
Expert claims Postecoglou’s chances of staying are “50/50”
Transfer insider Pete O’Rourke, who stays abreast of all the developments in the game, has said that the Europa League win has papered over the cracks of what has been a poor campaign for Tottenham.
He claimed that while lifting the trophy has given food for thought to the Spurs top brass, he put Postecoglou’s chance of remaining at the club at 50 per cent.
However, this is significantly better than the five per cent chance Postecoglou allegedly gives himself of staying at Tottenham Hotspur.
O’Rourke told Football Insider: “It’s papering over the cracks. That Europa League success is a brilliant moment for Tottenham. Champions League football will boost the finances of the club and everything else, and that’s a big thing for Tottenham going forward. Their league form has not been good enough, there’s no getting away from that.
“It’s probably about 50/50 right now, it’s given the Spurs hierarchy food for thought and obviously the fans are very happy right now. I don’t think winning the Europa League will ensure Postecoglou keeps his job.
“To be fair to Postecoglou, he’s been open after the match what whatever happens will happen. It’s obviously given Spurs a bit more to think about, having ended that trophy drought. But the club’s hierarchy might be thinking they might have to make a change.”
