Ange Postecoglou, the former Tottenham Hotspur manager, is reportedly set to receive a staggering £8 million payout following his dismissal from the club in June 2025. The Australian tactician, who took charge of Spurs in 2023, was let go after a mixed spell in North London.
How Postecoglou Earned His Payout
Postecoglou's contract included a substantial severance clause, ensuring he would be compensated if Tottenham decided to part ways with him before the end of his deal. Despite showing flashes of promise, inconsistent results and fan unrest ultimately led to his departure.
What’s Next for the Former Spurs Boss?
With £8m now heading his way, speculation is rife about how Postecoglou will use the windfall. Sources close to the manager suggest he may take a short break before considering his next move in football. Potential destinations include:
- Return to Australia: A high-profile role in the A-League or with the national team.
- European Challenge: Another Premier League club or a top-tier side in Europe.
- International Management: Taking charge of a national team ahead of the 2026 World Cup.
Tottenham’s Search for a New Manager
Meanwhile, Tottenham are already on the hunt for Postecoglou’s successor. Names linked with the job include:
- Roberto De Zerbi
- Julian Nagelsmann
- Graham Potter
Whoever takes over will inherit a squad in transition, with Spurs fans desperate for a return to the glory days.
