Licha ya kuiwezesha Tottenham kubeba kombe (Europa League) mara baada ya kupita Miaka 17, uongozi wa Klabu hiyo umemfuta kazi Kocha Ange Postecoglou.
Kabla ya kuondolewa katika nafasi hiyo, Postecoglou alisema hana uhakika na nafasi yake kutokana na matokeo ya michuano mingine iliyomalizika Msimu wa 2024/25 ikiwemo Premier League.
Kocha anayetajwa na mitandao mingi kuwa anaweza kuchukua nafasi hiyo ni Thomas Frank wa Brentford

Tottenham have sacked Ange Postecoglou despite the head coach ending the club's 17-year trophy drought with Spurs' Europa League win in May.
Thomas Frank is the leading candidate to replace him. Other alternatives have been sounded out by Tottenham, including Fulham boss Marco Silva, but Frank is emerging as perhaps the strongest contender.
Success in Europe was the club's final lifeline for silverware - and a place in next season's Champions League draw - amid a woeful season that saw them finish a dismal 17th in the league.
But despite a scrappy showing against fellow domestic strugglers Manchester United in Bilbao, Tottenham were able to get over the line with a 1-0 win in the Basque region and silence Postecoglou's critics.
Postecoglou was then feted as part of the club's raucous trophy parade, but with a view to improving the side ahead of the next campaign, chairman Daniel Levy and the Tottenham board have opted to move on the manager after just two seasons.
The axe falls exactly two years to the day since his appointment was first announced.
“When I reflect on my time as Manager of Tottenham Hotspur my overriding emotion is one of pride,' the Australian wrote in a statement shared by his representatives.
'The opportunity to lead one of England's historic football clubs and bring back the glory it deserves will live with me for a lifetime. Sharing that experience with all those who truly love this club and seeing the impact it had on them is something I will never forget.
'That night in Bilbao was the culmination of two years of hard work, dedication and unwavering belief in a dream. There were many challenges to overcome and plenty of noise that comes with trying to accomplish what many said was not possible.
'We have also laid foundations that mean this club should not have to wait 17 more years for their next success. I have enormous faith in this group of players and know there is much more potential and growth in them.
'I sincerely want to thank those who are the lifeblood of the club, the supporters. I know there were some difficult times but I always felt that they wanted me to succeed and that gave me all the motivation I needed to push on.
'It's important to acknowledge the hard working people at Spurs who gave me encouragement on a daily basis.
