A lot could change at Tottenham this summer.
It very much feels as if Ange Postecoglou needs to – at least – reach the UEFA Europa League final this season if the Australian is to remain in charge, with Spurs embarrassingly sat 14th in the Premier League.

The Athletic are now claiming that Tottenham have made Andoni Iraola of Bournemouth their primary target if Postecoglou is sacked.
However, the Spaniard may not be the only new hire at Spurs, after Daniel Levy made an offer to Fabio Paratici.
Daniel Levy offers Fabio Paratici the chance to return to Tottenham
The Italian negotiator – who helped bring the likes of Dejan Kulusevski and Cristian Romero to Spurs – has been out of work ever since FIFA banned him from football for 30 months due to false accounting at Juventus, a decision which prompted his resignation from his Director of Football role at Tottenham in April 2023.

Now – however – a story by Radio Rossonera claims that Levy has made a “rich” offer to Paratici in an attempt to lure him back to N17 ahead of AC Milan, who are also trying to hire the man from Borgonovo Val Tidone.
The Italian news outlet believe a meeting was held between the pair, and it is now up to the 52-year-old to make a decision.
TBR Football understand Paratici is leaning towards AC Milan – where he would be able to remain in his homeland.
What Ange Postecoglou has said about Fabio Paratici
If Postecoglou does remain at the helm and ends up working with Paratici, we would not anticipate any problems based on what the 59-year-old has previously said about him.
The man born in Greece said in January 2024: “Obviously I know Fabio and every now and then we’ll exchange messages or calls. He’s a smart guy and you can see that he’s got a great eye for talent.”
Whether Postecoglou will be in N17 to work alongside Paratici – who admires Radu Dragusin – remains to be seen, with plenty up in the air at Tottenham heading into the summer.
