According to a report from Football Insider, Postecoglou is assessing his options ahead of the summer following a highly damaging stint at Forest. Despite securing the Europa League trophy, his time at Tottenham ended in a dismal 17th-place finish, costing him his job. The Australian's subsequent move to the City Ground proved even more catastrophic, lasting just eight games before he was dismissed. Now, as clubs across the English top flight prepare for administrative changes, recruitment departments are left weighing his "Angeball" philosophy against the severe defensive vulnerabilities exposed during his turbulent time in the division.

Former Tottenham scout Mick Brown has issued a stark warning to clubs considering the manager, pointing out his refusal to adapt his high-line tactics. Speaking to the publication, Brown stated: “He’s still very highly thought of, but his record in the Premier League is terrible. His teams were giving goals away left, right and centre, and he refused to adapt or change his style even when things were going badly wrong for him. That’s not the sign of a good manager, and it should be a concern for whichever club goes for him next because if they’re in trouble, he won’t get them out. It should be a major concern for these clubs despite the fact, like I say, he is still highly thought of. It would be a huge risk to gamble on him.”

With several vacancies anticipated at the end of the season, Postecoglou is keeping a close eye on situations at Crystal Palace, Bournemouth, and Fulham. These clubs could be seeking a high-profile figure, yet his statistical footprint makes him a polarising candidate. He averages a mere 1.30 points per game across 81 Premier League matches. While the allure of the top tier remains strong, data suggests his high-octane football is a difficult sell. Teams are often more focused on survival or defensive solidity than aesthetic appeal, leaving boards hesitant to appoint a manager who struggles to compromise his attacking principles.

If Premier League interest fails to materialise, a return to Glasgow could be the ideal scenario to rebuild his fractured reputation. Celtic are currently under the interim guidance of Martin O’Neill, and the hierarchy are actively searching for a permanent successor to take charge after the current campaign. A reunion at Parkhead would see him return to a fanbase that still hold him in exceptionally high regard. However, financial constraints could prove a significant hurdle.

According to talkSPORT, De Zerbi "sounded out" United before committing his future to Spurs. The former Brighton and Marseille boss was announced as the new manager at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on March 31, signing a lucrative five-year contract. However, despite the security offered by the club, reports from Italy indicate the 46-year-old made enquiries regarding the Old Trafford vacancy, only to be told he was not under consideration. This revelation suggests Spurs may have been a secondary choice for the Italian, who became a free agent after departing France in February.

The decision to turn down De Zerbi has sparked intense speculation that Manchester United have already decided on their next permanent move. Carrick has been acting as caretaker manager since Ruben Amorim departed in January, and his impressive form makes him the frontrunner. Speaking on White and Jordan, talkSPORT's chief football correspondent Alex Crook revealed: “Do you know what I find interesting about Michael Carrick. We’ve got to Easter Weekend and they’ve not spoken – as I understand – to any other candidates. That’s not to say Carrick has been interviewed for the job. I don’t think they’ll need to interview him. I think they either give it to him or they don’t.”

This is not the first time De Zerbi has been linked with the Old Trafford hot seat. During his time at Marseille, it was sensationally claimed he showed his players a contract offer from United to motivate them. At the time, Erik ten Hag was under immense pressure. De Zerbi allegedly told his squad: “This is where I could have been, but I put my passion before my money. I came to Marseille for the passion.” Elaborating on the recent snub, Crook added: “Speaking to people in Italy this morning... They were telling me that Roberto De Zerbi – before taking the Tottenham job — sounded out Manchester United and was told he wasn’t in the reckoning there. Is that because they have already made their mind up without making it public?”

The decision-making at United seems to be paying dividends, as the club have stabilised the ship and put themselves firmly in the hunt for Champions League football. They currently sit third in the Premier League table with 55 points, holding a comfortable six-point cushion over Liverpool. The caretaker manager's record of only one defeat in 10 matches has made a compelling case for him to remain in charge. For De Zerbi, the challenge at Tottenham Hotspur is vastly different. While he may have wanted the United job, he now finds his team in 17th place, just one point above the relegation zone with seven fixtures remaining.
