Tottenham next permanent manager odds: Five favourites to replace Ange Postecoglou at Spurs

“I’ll continue winning in the future, wherever that might be.” Those were the words of Tottenham manager, Ange Postecoglou, as he acknowledged in an interview with Sky Sports that this could be his final season with the club. 

Spurs owner, Daniel Levy, is reportedly prepared to sack the Australian coach when the 2024/25 campaign ends – even if the 59-year-old secures the club’s first trophy since 2007, as the Lilywhites take on Manchester United in the Europa League final.

With odds expected to fluctuate following the final whistle on Wednesday night, there is no better time to lock in picks for the club’s next permanent manager. Here, you’ll catch each of the bookies’ favourites to succeed Postecoglou at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Scott Parker – 7/2 (bet365)

Burnley manager Scott Parker is bet365’s favourite (7/2) to replace Ange Postecoglou this summer. Having secured automatic promotion to the Premier League — matching Leeds’ 100 points tally and only missing out on top spot through goal difference — the 44-year-old has garnered significant attention for his sides’ exploits in 2024/25.

Parker played for Spurs between 2011 and 2013, so a relationship exists between Levy and the former midfielder. 

Oliver Glasner – 4/1 (BetVictor)

Oliver Glasner (4/1 with BetVictor) led Crystal Palace to the club’s first major domestic honour this season, as the Eagles landed a mighty victory over Manchester City at Wembley. The Austrian’s endeavours have not gone unnoticed by higher-ups at Tottenham, as his odds to exit Palace were slashed in the wake of Palace’s cup glory. 

Glasner boasts European experience spanning multiple leagues, including spells at the helm of Wolfsburg and Eintracht Frankfurt. This adaptability will prove crucial should the 50-year-old make the switch – as he may need to balance Champions League and domestic football if Tottenham qualify for Europe’s elite tournament with a win on Wednesday.

Thomas Frank – 6/1 (Paddy Power)

Thomas Frank has overseen Brentford’s rise from Championship mid-table fodder to Premier League mainstays in a seven-season period. Now 51 years old, the Dane is entering what many consider the ‘prime’ of a manager’s career. 

A series of impressively consistent league finishes, as well as dressing room behind-the-scenes videos, have demonstrated Frank’s ability to foster cohesion within a club that resides outside the ‘big six’. Spurs - traditionally a member of that elite group - could benefit from his positive footballing attitude and practical style of play. 

Paddy Power have listed the former Brondby head coach at 6/1.

Mauricio Pochettino – 9/1 (Paddy Power)

A second term as Spurs manager may be on the horizon for ‘Poch’, with the Argentine struggling to invigorate the United States national team since assuming the post in September.

Unsuccessful outings with PSG and Chelsea directly followed the 53-year-old’s departure from Spurs in the middle of the 2019/20 campaign - but there is a belief in some corners that both Pochettino and Spurs must reunite to flourish once again. 

Drawing him from the USA job will prove difficult one year before the nation hosts the 2026 World Cup. But if any team can pry the former Espanyol defender from the allure of such an event, it is likely the adoring fans of his former club. At 9/1 with Paddy Power, it’s not a bad shout. 

Francesco Farioli – 10/1 (BetVictor)

At just 36 years old, Francesco Farioli (10/1 with BetVictor) has already presided over three clubs. His current position with Ajax is under major scrutiny, however - as the Dutch giants surrendered a noteworthy Eredivisie lead to PSV Eindhoven during the final quarter of the 2024/25 season.

Although his stock has fallen, Farioli’s measured yet fast-paced tactical approach could represent the ideal remedy for Spurs fans who have endured Postecoglou’s often needlessly risky strategies throughout his tenure.
