Levy wants Postecoglou to steer Spurs out of trouble

Levy has few viable external options that could come in to replace Postecoglou right away, should he wish to make the managerial change. Internally, there would be Matt Wells, the senior assistant coach, and Ryan Mason, the assistant, who has twice previously stepped up to work as interim head coach.

Spurs lost 2-1 at home against Leicester on Sunday to intensify the scrutiny on Postecoglou. It was their second successive defeat by relegation-threatened opponents after the 3-2 reverse at Everton.

Postecoglou's team have taken five points from 11 league matches to lag 15th in the table. They are eight ahead of third-from-bottom Wolves, leading some fans to worry that Spurs might be in for a relegation battle.
