- Tottenham Hotspur chairman Daniel Levy explained that the club sacked former manager Ange Postecoglou despite winning the Europa League, because winning in Europe was 'not enough'.
- Postecoglou was sacked 16 days after Spurs beat Manchester United 1-0 in May to win their first European trophy in 41 years, due to poor results in the Premier League where they finished 17th.
- Levy stated that the club's aim is to win the Premier League and Champions League, and the decision to dismiss Postecoglou was unanimous with chief executive Vinai Venkatesham.
- Levy expressed gratitude to Postecoglou, acknowledging his contributions, but emphasised the need for a change to compete in all competitions.
- Spurs have replaced Postecoglou with Danish manager Thomas Frank, who Levy praised for his intelligence, communication skills, and technical abilities, as the club prepares for Champions League football next season.
