Tottenham boss Ange Postecoglou beat his Arsenal counterpart Mikel Arteta to the Coach of the Year award at the London Football Awards 2024.
Postecoglou has been honored at the annual event after helping to transform Tottenham since his arrival from Celtic last summer.
The Australian overcame the sale of the club’s top scorer Harry Kane to lead Spurs to fifth place in the Premier League.
Tottenham will look to secure a return to the Champions League, after missing out on Europe entirely following a miserable campaign last season.
Postecoglou’s honor comes despite Arsenal being involved in a second consecutive Premier League title race under Arteta.
