Tottenham are living weeks of tension. The season has left more questions than answers in North London. What began with enthusiasm after Ange Postecoglou’s promising first year has ended in doubts, disappointment and a league performance that convinces no one. The team has not responded in the Premier League, and the rumours are growing.
The Europa League final against Manchester United represents more than just a trophy: it could define the future of the bench. In the meantime, the board is on the move. Without official confirmations, but with clear signals, they are already analysing scenarios without the Australian coach at the helm.
According to reports from TEAMtalk, Tottenham already have a name on the table: Francesco Farioli. The Italian coach, just 36 years old, has generated admiration for his work at Ajax and previously at Nice. His immediate impact in the Netherlands put him in the orbit of several clubs. With 34 wins from 53 games, he has kept Ajax as title contenders despite a recent dip in form. Tottenham believe his €5M clause is within reach. Fabio Paratici, still influential in key decisions, has put his name forward as a priority candidate for a future new project.
Tottenham need clarity, not empty promises. Postecoglou was an illusion, but the present condemns him. Being seventeenth is no coincidence; it is the reflection of structural errors, repetitive mistakes and lack of answers in the face of adversity. The Europa League may make up for the campaign, but it does not erase the feeling of stagnation. Betting on Farioli would be risky, but sometimes courage changes destinies.
His aggressive, attacking style can revive a team without an identity. Although young, he has already proven that he can transform teams with clear ideas. But beyond names, Tottenham must make an honest analysis: it is not just about changing the coach, but about changing attitude.
The club have lived through attempts and restarts. Farioli can be a solution, yes, but he needs real support, a coherent sporting structure and time. The problem is not always in the dugout; Tottenham must rebuild from within. The Italian offers freshness and ambition, but without a solid base, any new project will fall into the same trap. The talent is there, the will cannot be lacking. Choosing well is urgent, but building with patience is what will really make the difference.
