English manager who last managed in Premier League almost 16 years ago is now on Tottenham’s shortlist
Tottenham Hotspur manager Ange Postecoglou has come under a lot of pressure recently.
Spurs suffered yet another defeat on Sunday, this time against Leicester City. They have now lost four games on the bounce🌳 and have just one win in the Premier League sin♋ce the start of December.
That has pushed Tottenham down to 15th in the tablꦦe, just eight points above Wolves and Ipswich Town, who are 18th and 19th respectively.
Some fans want Postecoglou gone, and Tottenham h💯ave several names on their shortlist to replace him if they decide to make th⭕at call.
Here’s the latest on one of them.
Tottenham have included Gareth Southgate in their shortlist but there’s a problem
Gareth Southgate has been out of a job since leaving🌄 his role as England’s manag✤er in July 2024.
The 54-year-old did a decent job as the Three Lions boss, lead♋ing them to back-to-back European finals. Sadly, he ended up on the losing side on both occasions.
Southgate wa꧂s linked with the Manchester United job a few months ago, but Ruben Amorim got the nod after Erik ten Hag’s de🐓partur𝔍e.
Now, have claimed that Southgate is 💛on Tottenham’s list of targets if Postecoglou is shown the doo൩r in the coming weeks.
However, there is a problem.
The꧟ report claims that Southgate ‘is not currently eager to consider’ the Spurs jo𝓡b even though he is free at the moment.
What happened when Southgate last managed in the Premier League?
Southgate has been around the💙 game for a long time, and he has even managed in the Premier League.
The Englishman ꧟began his managerial career at Middlesbrough in the 2006/07 season. He led his side to a 12th-place finish and his debut campaign and a 13th-place finish in the following year.
But, in his third season in charge, Boro suffered relegation after picking up just 32 points from 38 games. His last game as a Premier League manager 𝔉was in 🐷May 2009, which is nearly 16 years ago.
Southgate continued at the helm at Middlesbrough in the fo🍌llowing campaign, but he was shown the door in October of that year even though the club were a point off the Championship table.
The now 54-year-old hasn’t managed a𝄹 club since, which makes him a very risky option for Tottenham if they serious🍰ly pursue him in the coming months.
