  WHAT HAPPENED?

  Mourinho was Spurs boss between 2019-21 and is now in charge at Fenerbahce, with Tutto Calcio Estero in Italy claiming a return to north London is on the cards. The report states that the "turbulent adventure" of Mourinho in Turkey could make the move possible.

  Postecoglou's time at Tottenham is heading in a similarly disappointing direction after a dreadful Premier League campaign that sees them entrenched in the bottom half of the table. Thursday's Europa League quarter-final second leg away to Eintracht Frankfurt could well decide his immediate future.
