Tottenham Hotspur has sacked manager Ange Postecoglou following a tumultuous season. Despite lifting the UEFA Europa League trophy and ending a 17-year wait for silverware, the team's performance in the Premier League was dismal, with a record 22 defeats leading to a 17th-place finish. The club acknowledged Postecoglou's achievements, emphasizing that emotions tied to winning could not overshadow the team's struggles in the domestic league. His departure comes after a challenging start marked by star player Harry Kane's request to leave, complicating his tenure.
"Following a positive start in the 2023-24 Premier League (PL) season, we recorded 78 points from the last 66 PL games. This culminated in our worst-ever PL finish last season."
"At times there were extenuating circumstances -- injuries and then a decision to prioritize our European campaign. Whilst winning the Europa League this season ranks as one of the club's greatest moments, we cannot base our decision on emotions aligned to this triumph."
