Ange Postecoglou is reportedly edging closer to a lucrative Saudi Arabia move after his dismissal from Tottenham.

Ange Postecoglou was recently dismissed by Tottenham Hotspur due to the club's poor performance but he has already started attracting interest from other clubs.

Despite guiding Tottenham Hotspur to the Europa League final, where they beat Manchester United, Ange Postecoglou could not replicate the same in the Premier League, and club owner Daniel Levy could not give him a chance to stay.

Tottenham Hotspur finished a disappointing 17th with 38 points out of their 38 matches played. They managed to win 11 matches and lost 22.

Ange Postecoglou has since emerged as a potential target for Saudi Arabian club Al Ahli, according to the Daily Telegraph.

The Asian Champions League winners may be looking for a new manager next season since their current boss, Matthias Jaissle might return to Europe having been linked with Bundesliga outfit RB Leipzig. He had also been linked with Premier League club West Ham before Graham Potter was appointed.

If Jissle departs, Ange Postecoglou is believed to be Al-Ahli's target as a replacement and he will have the chance to work with former Liverpool attacker Roberto Firmino, former Leicester and Manchester City winger Riyad Mahrez, former Brentford striker Ivan Toney and former Chelsea goalkeeper Edouard Mendy.
