Tottenham Hotspur want boss who oversaw historic title collapse as Ange Postecoglou replacement

Ajax boss Francesco Farioli is an option to potentially replace Ange Postecoglou at Tottenham Hotspur, talkSPORT understands.

Spurs could be set for a managerial change this summer with the club on course for their lowest Premier League finish in history.

Farioli is on Tottenham’s radar should Postecoglou be sacked this summer

The north London outfit shockingly languish in 17th spot with just one game remaining.

They have already accumulated their most defeats in a single Premier League season [21] and will end the campaign with their lowest points tally.

But Spurs could still end the season by ending their 17-year trophy drought with Postecoglou guiding his side to the Europa League final.

However, it is believed that victory over Manchester United in Europe’s second-tier tournament – which would secure Champions League football – may not be enough to keep the Australian in a job.

It’s understood that a shortlist has been knocked up by the club should the decision be made to part ways with Postecoglou.

Fabio Paratici, who is closing in on a return as Spurs’ managing director, is a huge fan of his Italian compatriot Farioli.

The 36-year-old has impressed since taking over at the Johan Cruyff Arena last summer.

But unfortunately, he has overseen an unwanted European first as PSV inexplicably pipped Ajax to the Eredivisie title.

Never before has a side failed to win the league when leading by nine points with five matches to play.

PSV overtook them at the top with one fixture remaining after Ajax lost twice and drew as many times in four games.

Tottenham could bring in a new boss following a shocking Premier League campaign

Speaking after his side’s 2-0 win over FC Twente on Sunday, Farioli’s future was a talking point, however he remained tight-lipped.

Farioli, who still has two years left on his contract, simply stated: “My future?

“The future of Ajax is more important.”

As well as Farioli, talkSPORT understands that Fulham manager Marco Silva remains an option.

And in a boost for Tottenham, Silva recently rejected a big-money move to Saudi Arabia due to his desire to remain in Europe.

Though one boss who Spurs seem set to miss out on is Crystal Palace‘s Oliver Glasner.

And Palace chairman Steve Parish has now confirmed that talks will shortly be held to extend the Austrian’s stay at Selhurst Park beyond 2026.

He insisted: “He will stay here. For some period of time.”
