**Tottenham’s challenging season has intensified speculation surrounding Ange Postecoglou’s future, with reports linking Fulham manager Marco Silva as a possible successor.**
The North London side’s poor run of form continued midweek with a 1-1 Europa League draw against Rangers, extending their winless streak to five games in all competitions.
This stretch of disappointing results includes three defeats in their last five Premier League matches, leaving Spurs in 12th place and raising serious questions about Postecoglou’s ability to steer the team back on track.
Journalist Miguel Delaney has reported that Tottenham are monitoring Silva’s situation as they consider options for the managerial role. While chairman Daniel Levy remains publicly supportive of Postecoglou, the team’s recent struggles and wavering fan sentiment could push the club to evaluate alternative paths if results don’t improve.
Writing for [The Independent](https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/miguel-delaney-football-updates-newsletter-b1859565.html), Delaney stated:
“Speculation is now swirling around Ange Postecoglou. Spurs are known to have been looking at Marco Silva… Daniel Levy however, is also aware of wider fan sentiment. There are issues with Postecoglou’s coaching but supporters generally want to try something different and persist.”
Silva’s coaching pedigree makes him a standout contender. The Portuguese manager began his career in his homeland with Estoril, achieving success before moving on to Sporting CP, where he claimed the Portuguese Cup, and Olympiacos, where he secured the Greek Super League title.
In England, Silva has carved out a reputation as a tactically adept coach with spells at Hull City, Watford, Everton, and now Fulham. Appointed in 2021, Silva has transformed Fulham’s fortunes, leading them to a historic Championship title and breaking records along the way.
In December 2023, he guided the team to their first-ever League Cup semi-final, further solidifying his credentials. Despite lucrative offers from Saudi Arabia, Silva extended his contract at Fulham until 2026.
Although Levy remains optimistic about Postecoglou’s ability to turn things around, Tottenham’s ongoing struggles leave room for potential changes.
As Spurs prepare for a crucial clash against Southampton this weekend, Silva’s managerial track record and proven ability to drive progress position him as a viable candidate to rejuvenate the team if a change becomes necessary.
