In an emotional and heartfelt post-match interview, Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou opened up about the journey that led Spurs to Europa League glory.
Postecoglou dedicated the win to the “true believers” — the players, staff, and fans who stood by him during a season full of doubts and difficult moments.
He admitted this may not be the biggest title of his career, but it was undoubtedly the toughest challenge, given Tottenham’s recent struggles and the pressure he faced since arriving at the club.
Back in January, Postecoglou made the bold decision to prioritize the Europa League as Spurs’ best shot at silverware and Champions League qualification — a move that now looks like genius.
He also underlined the importance of developing young talent, praising the growth of Spurs’ younger players who gained vital experience in European competition this season.
Paying tribute to his late father, Ange explained how his father’s influence continues to drive him, and thanked his family and close friends for their support throughout the campaign.
While the celebrations erupted around him, Postecoglou remained calm, emphasizing the responsibility of leadership and the relief of achieving what many doubted was possible.
Asked about his future, he downplayed any talks with the board, insisting his focus is still on the team and the vision he has for Tottenham’s long-term success.
This is a defining moment for Spurs — and for a manager who never lost faith in his path.
