'No idea' - Under-fire Ange Postecoglou gives bleak outlook on his Tottenham future ahead of Spurs' date with destiny in the Europa League at Frankfurt

Postecoglou has come under pressure after a dismal season at Tottenham. Spurs currently languish down in 15th place in the Premier League table which has led to speculation Postecoglou will be sacked. However, the Spurs boss can still win silverware this season, with his team into the quarter-finals of the Europa League and facing a crunch clash with Eintracht Frankfurt up next.

Defeat to Frankfurt could spell the end for Postecoglou in north London, with Marco Silva, Andoni Iraola and Thiago Motta emerging as potential options to take over the hotseat. Postecoglou has been asked about his future ahead of the Europa League quarter-final second leg and admitted he was in the dark over whether he will still be at the club next season.

When asked if he had any information about his position, he told reporters: "No - no idea. We have a game tomorrow night, but it's not something I need to think about. I've never thought about those things in terms of what is important. What is important is the game that's a massive opportunity for this group of players and this football club to get closer to achieving what everyone wants to achieve. Anything other than that, particularly in terms of me, I don't really have much thought process that thinks about my career or what I'm doing in that way."

Postecoglou was also asked if the speculation about his future was affecting him and replied: "No, not at all. I don't define my career or me as a person about what people think about me. I never have, I never will. Whether I'm a good coach - one game isn't going to make a difference to that. If people think us winning tomorrow suddenly makes me a better manager than what I am today, or if losing tomorrow somehow makes me a worse manager, I guess that's their burden not mine. I just don't think that way in terms of my self-esteem. I couldn't care less, I really couldn't care less. There's no burden on me, or anxiety on me. What I'm doing is thinking we have a great opportunity to get to the final four of a major tournament. I'm not going to let that slip by without a fight, irrespective of what may come the day after."

Tottenham head to Frankfurt on Thursday with the tie level at 1-1 after the first leg. The winners will progress to a semi-final against Lazio or Bodo/Glimt.
