When asked by Dan Kilpatrick of The Standard about his future at the club and whether he is walking on eggshells at the moment, Ange Postecoglou was quick to defend himself and what he has achieved in his career.
On Tuesday, Dan Kilpatrick claimed in his column that if Ange Postecoglou loses to Manchester United, then he would automatically become a clown.
“That depends on your outlook, Dan. But I'll tell you one thing, irrespective of tomorrow, I'm not a clown. I never will be, mate,” Postecoglou said as per the Daily Mail.
“Really disappointed you used such terminology about a person who for 26 years, without any favours from anyone, has worked his way to be in a position where he's leading a club in a European major competition.
“For you to suggest that, somehow, us not being successful means that I'm a clown, not really sure how to answer that question.”
Ange Postecoglou has achieved huge milestones before arriving at Tottenham Hotspur, including winning the Australian title with South Melbourne and Brisbane Roar and the Japanese league with Yokohama F. Marinos. He won the Asian Cup and the Scottish Championship in both seasons with Celtic.
“My future is assured, mate, don't... I wouldn't be the first person who changes jobs, mate, we all change jobs, I'm sure you've had more than one job,” he said.
“My future's assured. I've got a beautiful family, I've got a great life, I'll keep on winning trophies until I finish, wherever that is. So, don't worry about my future, mate. My future is not tied to anything; my future is assured.”
As Tottenham Hotspur gear up for the crucial Europa League final match against Man United, Ange Postecoglou remains confident about his future at Spurs. He believes the outcome of the match will not determine whether he stays or leaves the club.
