Ange Postecoglou is the latest casualty in a ruthless managerial cycle at Tottenham, where Daniel Levy’s axe has swung with relentless consistency over the last two decades. Here are all the Spurs managers to have been sacked by Levy.Daniel Levy has been the Chairman of Tottenham Hotspur for well over two decades now, having taken charge in 2001. The Spurs Chairman has not been a popular figure at north London, with Tottenham fans regularly protesting against Levy and the way he runs the football club.The N17 club has managed just two trophies under the ownership of ENIC, following the Lilywhites’ League Cup win back in 2008 and the UEFA Europa League more recently in the 2024/25 season.While success has not been plentiful at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, Levy has never hesitated to pull the trigger on underperforming managers. After just two seasons at the helm, Ange Postecoglou has now become the latest victim of Daniel Levy, joining a long list of 15 Tottenham bosses to be handed the sack by the ruthless chairman, despite delivering Spurs’ first piece of silverware in 17 years.Here are the other managers to have been sacked by Daniel Levy in the last 24 years since he took charge:(Credit: @thefrederikkejensen / Instagram)The 15 Tottenham managers sacked by Daniel LevyGeorge Graham was Daniel Levy’s first Tottenham victimAs the first sacking of the Levy era, Arsenal great George Graham did not continue his managerial career after Tottenham and instead transitioned into a role as a television pundit.Glenn Hoddle’s Tottenham history did not save himGlenn Hoddle was Levy’s first managerial appointment and reached a League Cup final, which Spurs ultimately lost to Blackburn Rovers.He was sacked in 2003, later managing Wolves for two years and working as a part-time coach at QPR under Harry Redknapp. Hoddle has remained a familiar face on television screens as a pundit, often appearing on TNT Sports.David PleatA long-serving figure at Tottenham, David Pleat returned in a caretaker role for the third time following Hoddle’s departure, overseeing the remainder of the 2003/04 season.In 2010, Pleat came back as a consultant scout for Tottenham and stayed until 2024. He is now often seen attending matches and supporting Motor Neurone Disease (MND) research efforts in memory of his late wife.Jacques SantiniOne of the more forgettable names in Levy’s managerial logbook, Santini had the second shortest tenure, taking charge of only 13 matches in which Spurs averaged just 1.36 points.He left the club abruptly, citing “private” reasons, though it later emerged that his working relationship with sporting director Frank Arnesen had broken down. He later joined Auxerre, where he ended his coaching career.Martin JolJol, initially Santini’s assistant, took over and delivered back-to-back fifth-placed finishes. But following Spurs’ worst domestic start in 19 years, his spell ended in 2007.Unlike several of his predecessors, Jol did go on to enjoy a lengthy managerial career, including stints at Hamburg, Ajax, Al-Ahly and a brief return to English football with Fulham. His three years at Tottenham remain his longest stint at any club.Juande Ramos faced the sack soon after delivering Tottenham trophyJuande Ramos arrived at Tottenham off the back of consecutive UEFA Cup triumphs with Sevilla and delivered immediate silverware, winning the League Cup in 2008 after beating Chelsea at Wembley and overcoming Arsenal in the semi-final.However, things unravelled swiftly. He managed just two points from the opening eight matches of the 2008/09 season and was promptly dismissed. Ramos was later appointed by Real Madrid and managed in Russia and Ukraine, though he never quite found similar success.(James Veysey/Shutterstock for London Football Awards)Harry Redknapp almost joined England, then got sacked by TottenhamHarry Redknapp, the second-longest serving manager under Levy, enjoyed strong support from the fanbase, but rumours linking him to the England job destabilised his reign.Though Roy Hodgson ultimately landed the England role, Spurs’ late collapse in the 2011/12 season led to Redknapp’s dismissal.Now 77, Redknapp has since retired, with his final managerial jobs coming at QPR, Birmingham City, and with the Jordan national team.Andre Villas-BoasDespite David Moyes being tipped as favourite for the Tottenham job, it was Andre Villas-Boas who replaced Redknapp, keen to rebuild his reputation after a turbulent spell at Chelsea.His first season was impressive, guiding Spurs to a then-record Premier League points total of 72, but a 5-0 home defeat to Liverpool in December 2013 sealed his fate.Tim Sherwood was second to none at TottenhamTim Sherwood famously claimed he was “the best manager this club’s ever seen” thanks to his 59.1 per cent win rate during a six-month spell in charge. His touchline antics included giving his gilet to a fan, inviting him to take over. He later managed Aston Villa for a brief spell and is now a pundit on Sky Sports.Mauricio Pochettino went from Champions League final to Tottenham graveyardMauricio Pochettino holds the record as Levy’s longest-serving manager, taking Spurs to two FA Cup semi-finals, two title challenges and a memorable Champions League final in 2019.However, with Spurs sitting 14th in the table, he was dismissed in late 2019. He later managed Paris Saint-Germain and Chelsea, and is now set to lead the USA national team into the 2026 World Cup.Jose Mourinho couldn’t win at TottenhamJose Mourinho was controversially sacked just days before the 2021 Carabao Cup final, denying him the opportunity to deliver the club’s first trophy in over a decade. He later guided AS Roma to the Europa Conference League title and is currently in charge of Fenerbahce.Nuno Espirito SantoHired as Mourinho’s long-term successor, Nuno Espirito Santo lasted only four months, losing four out of six league games before being sacked.After a brief stint in Saudi Arabia, he returned to England and now manages Nottingham Forest, remarkably guiding them into the top six after they pushed for UEFA Champions League qualification.Antonio ConteAntonio Conte’s tenure ended after just 16 months, departing by mutual consent following a fiery press conference in which he slammed the club’s mentality after a draw against Southampton. He has since taken charge of Napoli, guiding them to the Scudetto.Cristian StelliniConte’s assistant Cristian Stellini was promoted to interim manager but lasted just four games, culminating in a humiliating 6-1 defeat to Newcastle. He has since reunited with Conte as part of the coaching team at Napoli.Ange Postecoglou becomes unlucky number 15 at TottenhamAnge Postecoglou made an instant impact at Tottenham, winning his first ten Premier League games; however, when injuries hit key members of his first team, the Lilywhites struggled to find consistency, but still managed to finish 5th in the Premier League.His second spell at Tottenham saw the north London club fall all the way down to 17th place, 12 places worse than his first spell, a run that saw Spurs lose 22 games in the Premier League.Regardless, the Australian manager managed to achieve something many before him did not, as he delivered the club’s first silverware in 17 years with a UEFA Europa League triumph.Of course, even continental success could not safeguard his job, with Daniel Levy opting to dismiss him after just two seasons.The post All 15 Tottenham managers sacked by Daniel Levy after Ange Postecoglou exit appeared first on Spurs Web.
