Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou has been awarded the Manager of the Year prize at the 2024 London Football Awards, edging out his counterpart Mikel Arteta from Arsenal. Postecoglou receives this honor in recognition of his transformative impact on Tottenham since his arrival from Celtic last summer.
Despite facing the challenge of Harry Kane’s departure, Tottenham has flourished under Postecoglou’s leadership, currently sitting fifth in the Premier League standings. The Australian manager has revitalized the team, aiming to secure a return to Champions League football after a disappointing campaign last season.
This accolade for Postecoglou comes amidst Arsenal’s involvement in a fiercely contested Premier League title race under Arteta. Despite being just two points behind league leaders Liverpool and one behind defending champions Manchester City, Arteta’s side narrowly missed out on the award this season, despite his previous success last year.
