Tottenham Eyeing Andoni Iraola as Potential Replacement for Postecoglou
Bournemouth manager Andoni Iraola is on Tottenham Hotspur’s shortlist if they decide to part ways with Ange Postecoglou, according to Fabrizio Romano in his exclusive GIVEMESPORT newsletter.
Postecoglou is under mounting pressure following a disappointing domestic campaign.
Spurs have been eliminated from both the FA Cup and Carabao Cup, leaving the Europa League as their only chance for success this season.
With a crucial quarter-final tie against Eintracht Frankfurt approaching, European glory could be Postecoglou’s best hope of saving his job.
Had his tenure been judged solely on domestic performances, it’s possible chairman Daniel Levy might have already made a decision regarding his future.
Romano Confirms Iraola is a Manager of Interest
Romano reports that Iraola is a serious candidate for Spurs should they opt for a managerial change, though multiple names remain under consideration.
He also clarifies that no decision has been made yet, with Tottenham’s Europa League campaign playing a key role in determining Postecoglou’s fate.
“There are several names being monitored, Iraola is one of them for sure.
But no decision has been made yet on Postecoglou, waiting also on Europa League campaign,” Romano stated.
Sources at GIVEMESPORT suggest that Levy sees Iraola as the top choice if a change is made.
Other potential candidates include Marco Silva and Thomas Frank, both of whom boast Premier League experience—a quality Levy reportedly values highly.
Postecoglou’s Future Hinges on European Success
For now, Postecoglou remains in charge as Spurs head into the international break.
Had they already been knocked out of the Europa League, questions would likely have been raised about his immediate future.
While Tottenham’s domestic campaign is effectively over, European success could salvage their season.
With Spurs fans eager to end a long trophy drought, winning the Europa League would not only deliver long-awaited silverware but also strengthen Postecoglou’s position at the club.
