Ange Postecoglou Liverpool claim made as Tottenham Hotspur rivals continue managerial search

Ange Postecoglou has undeniably made a remarkable impact since assuming the helm at Tottenham Hotspur. Beyond just introducing an exhilarating brand of football, he has fostered a sense of unity and cohesion throughout the club, spanning from the passionate fanbase to the dedicated players, staff, and governance figures. For Tottenham supporters, attending matches has become an electrifying experience filled with anticipation and excitement.

Under Postecoglou’s guidance, Spurs have undergone a remarkable transformation, evolving from a struggling member of the traditional big six to one of the most captivating and dynamic teams in European football within a remarkably short timeframe.

Such stellar achievements have inevitably attracted attention from other clubs eager to secure Postecoglou’s managerial talents, a testament to the profound impact he has had at N17 and beyond.

Jermaine Pennant’s bold suggestion

Ange Postecoglou has been impressive at Tottenham.

Jermaine Pennant, former Liverpool winger turned TalkSPORT pundit, has voiced his belief that Postecoglou would be an ideal successor to Jurgen Klopp at Anfield. Pennant contends that the 58-year-old Australian manager would eagerly embrace the chance to lead the Liverpool squad come summer.

Jurgen Klopp’s departure from Liverpool marks the conclusion of an exhilarating eight-and-a-half-year tenure at Anfield. As the club bids farewell to Klopp, it also ushers in an opportunity to embark on a new chapter. The search for a successor to lead Liverpool into this fresh era is underway, with names like Xabi Alonso, Roberto De Zerbi, and Rúben Amorim emerging as potential candidates linked with the managerial position at the club.

However, Pennant believes Liverpool should raid their Premier League rivals for Postecoglou. Speaking to Jason Cundy on the Sports Bar (via. talkSPORT), he said: 

“I would like to see [Ange] Postecoglou there. He’s probably in the conversation. The way Spurs were to the way they are now is night and day – and that is credit to him.”

“The reason I am saying that is because Liverpool will always be fighting for silverware, the Champions League, and the Premier League. They have won everything domestically in the last eight, seven years. If he is at Spurs, they have not won anything for donkey’s.”

“If Liverpool come knocking, I think he is jumping ship. Why would you not manage a better team?”

The Australian is a Liverpool fan who has often professed his admiration for Bill Shankly among pothers of the boot room. We can understand that the opportunity to manage a club such as Liverpool does not come along often, but then Ange appears to be someone with integrity and we hope he continues the good work he is doing in North London.

Indeed, Jermaine Pennant’s comments may come across as harsh, especially considering Liverpool’s recent success under Jurgen Klopp. However, it’s understandable that there would be speculation about Ange Postecoglou’s future given his impressive transformation of Tottenham Hotspur.

Postecoglou has undoubtedly made a significant impact at Spurs, garnering support from fans and implementing his vision for the club’s future. It would be surprising if he were to abruptly depart from a project he has been so integral to, especially considering the promising direction in which he has steered the team.
