Football Insider reports that Ange Postecoglou is not considering quitting Tottenham Hotspur to become the new England manager.
Postecoglou linked with England
Postecoglou has been linked with the England job ever since Gareth Southgate decided to quit after nearly eight years in charge (Telegraph).
The Australian has received plaudits in England for his attacking style of football since taking over as head coach of Tottenham last summer, helping the club to go back to their attacking principles after the counter-attacking styles of Antonio Conte and Jose Mourinho.
However, it remains unlikely that Postecoglou will leave Spurs after just over a year, even with the prospect of a potential offer from the Three Lions on the horizon.
Postecoglou to stay at Tottenham
Spurs sources say the club are not willing to consider compensation offers to release Postecoglou from his current contract in North London (Football Insider).
It is also said that Postecoglou is not even considering quitting his post, and the Spurs manager has shown little enthusiasm when asked about England’s managerial vacancy by the press.
Speaking about rumours linking him to the job, he said last week: “Mate, I was having a nap this afternoon, so I’ve got no idea. I’m Tottenham manager and I’m determined to bring success to this club, as I have at every other club I’ve been to. That’s where my focus is totally.” (Football London).
Spurs Web opinion:
Postecoglou surprised Celtic supporters when he left his previous role after just two seasons, he had already won five of six domestic trophies his side competed for, winning a treble in his second season in Scotland.
His project at Tottenham is still in its early days. Young players are being brought in and the future looks exciting. Ange isn’t going anywhere.
