Chairman Daniel Levy is facing a potential player revolt over the handling of the situation.

Postecoglou was sacked on Friday, exactly two years after his appointment, having returned from holiday in Greece to learn of the decision.

Tottenham's statement cited a performance review and "careful consideration" as the reasons for his departure.

Levy held a meeting after Tottenham's final Premier League match, a 4-1 loss to Brighton, just five days after their Europa League final victory against Manchester United in Bilbao.

Levy then traveled to the Bahamas for discussions with the Lewis family, the club's majority shareholders, before making the final decision.

According to The Telegraph, Levy's decision has sparked outrage among the players, with some considering their future at the club.

A source told the newspaper, “The players are furious about the development and how the situation has been handled. The next manager is going to inherit a difficult situation."

Tottenham Players Pay Tribute to Postecoglou

Many players paid tribute to Postecoglou on social media.

Pedro Porro posted photos with the manager on Instagram, writing, “Thank you for everything, coach. For your guidance, trust, and help in adapting. I will always be grateful for the way you led us, defended us, and kept us united. You gave us one of the greatest moments in the club's history and we will always remember you for it. I wish you all the best."

Ange Postecoglou reportedly grew distant from the players at Tottenham Hotspur.

Richarlison wrote, "Coach, thank you so much for helping me and believing in me during one of the most difficult periods of my career and life. Everyone who loves Tottenham will remember that Big Ange always wins titles in his second season. We made history! I salute you and wish you good luck. I will always support you."

Dominic Solanke added, "Thank you for bringing me to this great club and giving us a wonderful trophy. I'll never forget the conversation we had before I signed and we achieved a dream! Good luck in your new adventure."
