Tottenham's Europa League Final Against Manchester United: Change Ahead Regardless of Success
=========================================================================================
Tottenham Hotspur will face Manchester United in the Europa League final on 21 May, marking their first trophy opportunity since 2008, yet Spurs' internal changes may outweigh the importance of winning the title. Despite leading his side to a continental final, Ange Postecoglou's job remains uncertain.
Discussions are ongoing for the return of Fabio Paratici, who was previously managing director of football at Tottenham but left in 2023 due to a two-and-a-half-year Fifa ban. If a deal is reached, Paratici could play a significant role in Tottenham's upcoming transfer window, given his connections and involvement in recent signings such as Cristian Romero, Dejan Kulusevski, and Rodrigo Bentancur.
Meanwhile, the annual departmental review could lead to adjustments within the medical and strength and conditioning teams due to the team's destabilizing injury record this season. Vinai Venkatesham, former Arsenal chief executive, is joining Tottenham before next season in a similar position, while the future of Scott Munn, Tottenham's current chief football officer, remains uncertain.
If Postecoglou is sacked, candidates to replace him include Brentford's Thomas Frank, Fulham's Marco Silva, Bournemouth's Andoni Iraola, and Crystal Palace's Oliver Glasner. The outcome of the Europa League final may have an impact on Tottenham's approach to the summer transfer window, as Champions League qualification could open numerous opportunities.
