Exclusive: Fabrizio Romano says Tottenham have contacted 'one of the most wanted managers in Europe'

Tottenham Hotspur chairman Daniel Levy and the club’s board convened once again following their triumphant Europa League night on Wednesday to discuss Ange Postecoglou’s future, revealing their current position on whether to retain or part ways with the manager.

The 59-year-old has risen to hero status, steering Spurs to their first major trophy in 17 years and securing the club’s first European title since 1984.

Earlier this season, Postecoglou faced criticism for his bold claim that he ‘always’ wins silverware in his second year at the helm — a statement now destined to be remembered as one of the most iconic in recent football after Tottenham’s historic Europa League victory.

Brennan Johnson secured his place in Spurs lore with a gritty winner just before halftime, while the defensive heroics of Micky van de Ven—who made a crucial clearance off the line—and goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario’s vital saves proved instrumental on a night the club will never forget.

Cristian Romero, Destiny Udogie, and Pedro Porro also delivered solid defensive performances, effectively neutralizing a lackluster Manchester United side that, despite dominating possession, failed to create meaningful chances in the final third.

Though Postecoglou’s future at Tottenham remains uncertain, according to David Ornstein, the manager’s determination to continue his project was clear amid the celebrations.

The North London club endured a disappointing domestic campaign, setting a new record for most Premier League defeats in a single season.

Yet, during Friday’s victory parade in London, Postecoglou sent a subtle but unmistakable message to the board about his commitment to the club’s future.

“I told them, and they laughed,” said Postecoglou after Tottenham’s open-top bus celebrations.

“I told them and they didn’t believe. And here we are. I’ll leave you with this: all the best television series, season three is better than season two.”

Postecoglou’s recent remarks suggest the former Celtic manager is eager to build on Tottenham’s European triumph, but whether chairman Daniel Levy shares the same vision remains uncertain.

Following their victory in Bilbao, journalist Pete O’Rourke told Football Insider that senior Spurs officials are actively debating the next steps for the managerial role.

O’Rourke revealed that Levy and the club’s board held fresh discussions about Postecoglou’s future after the Europa League final, sharing that their current position on potentially parting ways with the coach is split.

Sources indicate that in the aftermath of the celebrations, Tottenham’s leadership is now evenly divided—‘50/50’—over whether to keep Postecoglou or make a change, underscoring the complexity of the decision.

Despite reports before the United clash suggesting Postecoglou could be dismissed regardless of the Europa League success, the emotional weight of such a historic achievement complicates any immediate move.

As for potential successors, Tottenham have a lengthy shortlist of managerial targets, including names like Andoni Iraola (Bournemouth), Marco Silva (Fulham), Oliver Glasner (Crystal Palace), Thomas Frank (Brentford), Scott Parker (Burnley), Jürgen Klopp (Head of Global, Red Bull), Niko Kovač (Borussia Dortmund), Edin Terzić (free agent), Xavi (free agent), and Francesco Farioli (free agent).
