James Maddison on Ange Postecoglou’s Drive and Future
Ange Postecoglou is renowned for his relentless drive in football. From Australia to Japan, Scotland, and now the Premier League, the 59-year-old Australian has worked tirelessly to reach his current position.
Maddison’s Insights
James Maddison recently shared Postecoglou’s perspective on retirement during an interview with Optus Sport. According to Maddison, Postecoglou has been open about his retirement options:
“He’s very passionate about his job. He’s said before that he’s at an age where he could easily retire and enjoy a relaxing holiday. But his passion for football and his desire to win keep him driven. He’s still so hungry to get the best out of us and achieve more.”
Postecoglou’s Future
Despite being 59 and earning £100k a week at Tottenham, Postecoglou has no immediate plans to retire. His tenure in the Premier League is still relatively new, and he remains focused on achieving his goals.
Historically, managers like Claudio Ranieri, Roy Hodgson, and Sir Alex Ferguson have continued in the game into their 70s. It wouldn’t be surprising if Postecoglou followed a similar path.
