Ange Postecoglou is expected by the Tottenham hierarchy to return the club to the Champions League in the 2024-25 campaign, sources have told Football Insider.

The Australian has plenty of credit in the bank with club chiefs after his first season in charge at Spurs, which saw the club finish fifth.

He has spoken publicly about his vision of winning a trophy with the Lilywhites, but it is believed Champions League qualification is the priority for the club.

Sources say missing out on Europe's premier club competition would be a "blow" for the manager's long-term future - with his contract set to run until June 2027.

Tottenham face a fight to make the cut with Aston Villa, Newcastle, Chelsea and Man United all expected to be in the race - and Nottingham Forest looking to maintain an early-season push.

Champions League is the target for Tottenham boss Postecoglou

The Premier League's top four clubs will qualify for the competition's league phase, while the fifth-place club could also qualify if English sides thrive in Europe this season.

Spurs currently sit 10th in the table after recent defeats against Ipswich and Crystal Palace.

Postecoglou's side are playing in the Europa League this term and are well-placed to progress from the league phase directly to the knockout rounds.

They return to action following the international break with a league clash against Man City (23 November) before taking on Roma at home in Europe on 28 November.
