What Ange Postecoglou has said about Kieran McKenna as Tottenham linked with Ipswich manager
The Tottenham Hotspur board has kept faith in Ange Postecoglou this season despite things not going to plan on the pitch.
However, it looks as though the Tottenham hierarchy’s patience may be starting to wear thin with the🐬 coach.
TBR Football chief correspondent Graeme Bailey has confirmed that To🐟ttenham h𝔍ave told Postecoglou that their 1-0 loss to AZ in the Europa League was unacceptable.
Whilst the club have not told Postecoglou that he wiꦦll be sacked if he does not win the Europa League, the last-16 first-leg loss has ﷺrocked the club.
Tottenham have also done work on possible alternatives, including Bournemouth’s Andoni Iraola, Brentford’s Thomas𝄹 Fr♈ank and Fulham’s Marco Silva.
Another name appreciated by the North London club is Ipswich Town’s Kieran McKenna.
TBR Football 𓃲has been told that the one-time Spurs youth player and former coa𒊎ch should not be ruled out of contention.
Postecoglou has already given 𓂃♕his verdict on McKenna from the games Tottenham played against Ipswich this season.
