Final a turning point for Spurs, says Ange
Cape Times
|May 13, 2025
ANGE Postecoglou says Uefa Europa League glory for Tottenham could be a "turning point" in the way the club is perceived as he prepares for a blockbuster final against Manchester United.
-
Spurs face their Premier League rivals in Bilbao on May 21 after both sides comfortably won their semi-finals despite shocking league form. Tottenham are seeking their first silverware since the 2008 League Cup and their first European trophy since the 1984 UEFA Cup, the forerunner of the Europa League.
Spurs boss Postecoglou was asked at a media day in London on Monday about what winning the trophy would mean.
"For me personally, great, it's another trophy I can reminisce about in my old age, but more importantly for the club," he said. "I've always said that it's the significance of what it does to people that really impacts you."
The former Australia and Celtic boss said it was crucial to change the story of under-performance at the club, considered one of the "Big Six" in the English game.

Transforming Trump's G20 snub into a strategic advantage for South Africa
THE announcement by US President Donald Trump that South Africa will be “uninvited” from the 2026 G20 Summit is, at face value, a diplomatic provocation. But beneath the headlines lies a far more consequential opportunity: the chance for South Africa - with its business leadership at the forefront - to redefine its global narrative, champion multilateralism and strengthen its position as a bridge between the West and the Global South.
