The mayor of Melbourne has implored Tottenham to reconsider their decision to sack Aussie countryman Ange Postecoglou. Postecoglou was dismissed last week just 16 days after leading Spurs to the Europa League, with it determined that a first trophy in 17 years was not enough to redeem the Aussie after a dismal domestic season.

The Australian manager ended Spurs trophy drought, but it was not enough to counterbalance poor league performance

On the heels of a 2024-25 season that unexpectedly ended in the club's first major trophy since 2008, Tottenham Hotspur is parting ways with manager Ange Postecoglou.

Yves Bissouma has shared his text exchange with Ange Postecoglou after the Australian was sacked as Tottenham manager. Postecoglou led Spurs to their first trophy since 2008 by beating Manchester United in the Europa League final last month, but it was not enough for him to keep his job.

Tottenham Hotspur players including Son Heung-Min, Guglielmo Vicario, Dominic Solanke and Micky van de Ven have paid tribute to Ange Postecoglou following his dismissal on Friday. Postecoglou was sacked with the club saying a change was necessary in order "to compete on multiple fronts."

"Following a review of performances and after significant reflection, the Club can announce that Ange Postecoglou has been relieved of his duties."
