ANGE POSTECOGLOU is giving serious consideration to a Saudi Pro League switch.
The Aussie was ruthlessly axed earlier this month despite finally ending Tottenham’s trophy hoodoo.
And Postecoglou, 59,. is already in demand having been approached by Al-Ahli, who will be in the market for a new manager if current chief Matthias Jaissle leaves.
German Jaissle’s future remains in doubt despite guiding the Jeddah outfit – who have England striker Ivan Toney up front – to the AFC Champions League title last month.
And Postecoglou is currently mulling over the prospect of a lucrative switch to Saudi.
The Europa League-winning boss has already had interest from other clubs in England and on the continent.
He is understood to favour another crack at the Premier League should the opportunity arise.
And Postecoglou not rush a decision over his future despite the lucrative proposal from the Middle East.
The popular coach ended Tottenham’s 17-year trophy drought last month by beating Manchester United in Bilbao.
But he was still sacked just 16 days later, with Thomas Frank appointed as his successor on Thursday.
The Asutralian manager penned an emotional message to Spurs after it was confirmed he would leaving the club.

He said: “When I reflect on my time as manager of Tottenham Hotspur, my overriding emotion is one of pride.
“The opportunity to lead one of England’s historic football clubs and bring back the glory it deserves will live with me for a lifetime.
“Sharing that experience with all those who truly love this club and seeing the impact it had on them is something I will never forget.
“That night in Bilbao was the culmination of two years of hard work, dedication and unwavering belief in a dream.”
AS the summer holidays draw near, many parents find themselves wondering whether they should get their child’s teacher a gift – and, if so, what to choose.
While showing appreciation is always a lovely gesture, picking the perfect present can sometimes feel tricky.
Teacher Ivy, known on TikTok as ‘toothfairylikeme’, has shared her top three favourite gift ideas to help parents navigate this decision.
In her video, Ivy revealed the presents she’d love to receive, sparking an online debate about gift-giving for teachers.
The caption of the video read: “With the summer holidays looming, lots of families are thinking of buying a present for their kids’ teacher.
“Here’s my guide on some things they would ACTUALLY like.”
With over a decade of experience as a supply teacher in primary schools, Ivy reflected on the thoughtful gifts she’s received over the years and admitted she misses them now that she’s not regularly in one classroom.
Her top picks include practical ideas: a notebook (ideal for jotting down endless notes and replacing lost scraps of paper), a sturdy tote or fold-away bag (perfect for carrying books and supplies home), and her ultimate favourite – a heartfelt handwritten note.
While many viewers praised Ivy’s suggestions for being both inexpensive and practical, others criticised the idea of teachers openly sharing what they’d like to receive.
The video sparked a lively discussion, with some arguing that appreciation doesn’t need to come in the form of gifts, while others defended Ivy’s honesty and straightforward advice.
Her video gained 28.6k views and 46 comments after two days of being shared.
One wrote: “It needs to be stopped.”
To which another added: “It only takes one parent to start it then the others try and outdo each other, I have never started it and never will.”
A second added: “Teaching must be the only profession where you are expected to give them a present just because the year ended.
“And the supermarkets force it into our faces.”
While a third said: “Never give presents to any teachers you get paid for doing your job.”
And Ivy replied: “Absolutely, and that is your prerogative.
“But if others choose to recognise the devotion that it takes to literally educate the next generation of doctors, engineers, bus drivers, etc. they should be allowed to do so without judgement.”
IF you are wondering whether or not to buy your child's teacher an end-of-year gift, look no further...
As the summer holidays fast approach, Fabulous Senior Digital Writer and mum-of-two Sarah Bull weighs in on whether you should feel obliged to buy your kids’ teachers a present to mark the end of term.
Sarah said: “It can be pricey trying to keep the kids entertained during six weeks off school.
“But before the end of term, parents all over the country are also trying to budget for gifts for their kids’ teachers too.
“With teachers, teaching assistants, SEN specialists and other beloved staff members to buy for, it can be an expensive business.
“And while lots of schools actively discourage parents from spending their money on end-of-term presents for teachers, I consider it an obligation.
“After all – I know how tough my kids can be at home, and their teachers have to keep them in check for the majority of the day – so don’t they deserve a token of appreciation?
“I also wouldn’t want my children to feel left out when their friends arrive at school armed with pressies for their teachers.
“While some parents go all out with gifts, with alcohol and flowers popular choices, I’ll be doing my best to stay at the £5 mark for each of the four staff members I’ll be buying for.
“And with some fab options in stores like Poundland, Home Bargains and B&M, it should be easy for me to stick to my budget.”

FORMULA ONE cult hero Robert Kubica enjoyed a fairytale race win at the iconic Le Mans 24 Hours.
The 40-year-old took the chequered flag driving the Ferrari number 83 AF Corse Ferrari 499P, also driven by China‘s Yifei Ye and Britain’s Phil Hanson.

The #83 499P seals the 𝗵𝗮𝘁-𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗰𝗸 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗜𝘁𝗮𝗹𝗶𝗮𝗻 𝗺𝗮𝗻𝘂𝗳𝗮𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲𝗿. With 𝗥𝗼𝗯𝗲𝗿𝘁 𝗞𝘂𝗯𝗶𝗰𝗮, 𝗬𝗶𝗳𝗲𝗶 𝗬𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗣𝗵𝗶𝗹 𝗛𝗮𝗻𝘀𝗼𝗻, Ferrari has shone… pic.twitter.com/etLfafZIqU
Kubica was once considered to be in an elite crop of F1 talent alongside Lewis Hamilton as he took his maiden win at the 2008 Canadian Grand Prix.
In 2011 the Pole had agreed to sign for the Ferrari F1 team for the 2012 season before disaster struck as he was involved in a devastating rally crash that almost killed him.
Kubica was left with 42 broken bones, a partially severed wrist and lost three quarters of his blood volume after being trapped in his car for more than an hour before rescue workers managed to free him.
He underwent a seven-hour operation by seven doctors before having two further operations to repair fractures in his leg, shoulder and arm.
As a result he spent months recovering from his injuries and was robbed of the chance to race for the Scuderia in F1.
Kubica returned to motorsport in the World Rally Championship in 2013 and went on to win 14 Stages before he made a stunning return to F1 to drive for Williams.
Initially he started out as the team’s reserve driver in 2018 before he was given a full seat in 2019 to partner then F2 champion George Russell.
He then left his role in 2020 after managing just a single point, but did remain as a reserve driver for Alfa Romeo.

In 2023 he was crowned champion of the World Endurance Championship, while he also won two Le Mans series in 2021 and 2024.
However, top spot in the iconic 24-hour race eluded him as he twice finished as a runner-up and was forced to retire from the 2024 edition.
But this year Kubica finally added the iconic motorsport event to his lucrative racing CV in front of a sell-out crowd – which sees around 300,000 fans gather for the showpiece.
Kubica drove a long final stint to achieve the prestigious victory for Ferrari, which is their third year in a row winning the race.
Speaking over his team radio, he said: “It’s been a long 24 hours but an enjoyable one – grazie mille, grazie a tutti.”
He later said to TNT Sports: “Winning Le Mans is special.
“It’s been a demanding week – we made everything possible. We kept our heads down when we had to push, and when not we took care of the tyres.
“I’m happy for myself, my team-mates, AF Corse and Ferrari winning three times in row. A better scenario, we could not have.”
Kubica joins two-time Le Mans and two-time F1 champion Fernando Alonso as the only drivers to have won an F1 race and Le Mans this century.
He is also the first Polish driver to win the iconic race.
Team-mate Yifei Ye also became the first ever Chinese driver to take an overall win at Le Mans 24 Hours.
Motorsport fans will also have the chance to sink their teeth into the F1 Canadian Grand Prix, where Russell took pole ahead of Max Verstappen.

ALEJANDRO GARNACHO wants to stay in the Premier League this summer, according to reports.
The Manchester United winger is expected to leave Old Trafford following a row with boss Ruben Amorim.
Garnacho was upset not to start the Europa League final last month.
The Argentine was subsequently dropped from Amorim’s matchday squad for the Red Devils’ final Prem game of the season, at home at Aston Villa.
And during United’s post-season tour of Asia, Garnacho was involved in an altercation with a fan.
SunSport revealed last month that the winger favours a move to Chelsea.
Garnacho has been linked with Bayer Leverkusen, in a move that would reunite him with former United boss Erik ten Hag.
But transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has reiterated that Garnacho is prioritising a move to a Premier League club.
In addition to Chelsea, Villa are said to be monitoring the situation.
SunSport recently revealed that Al-Nassr are also keen.

A move to the Saudi side would see Garnacho reunite with Cristiano Ronaldo, having briefly played alongside the Portuguese forward at United.
Initially it was claimed that United would be demanding £50million for their homegrown winger.
This figure is now thought to have risen to around £70m.
Garnacho has played 144 times for United, scoring 26 goals and laying on 22 assists.

ROBBIE WILLIAMS is the brainchild behind Soccer Aid, which has now raised over £106m since its creation in 2006.
The star-studded charity match sees the England XI against a World XI featuring former players and top celebs.
Pop royalty Williams came up with the idea of Soccer Aid alongside his friend Jonathan Wilkes, while sitting poolside in Los Angeles.
Wilkes said on Soccer Aid’s success: “It’s incredible, I can honestly say with my hand on my heart that I genuinely thought it was going to be a one-off in 2006.”
The money raised from the celebrity charity match is donated to children’s charity Unicef.
SOCCER AID LIVE – LATEST UPDATES
Williams said in 2021 about Soccer Aid, which made a then record £13 that year: “It’s difficult to put into words the impact that £13 million could have for children around the world.
“It could help Unicef to get life-saving food supplies moving again. It could help ensure that children are still able to receive their routine vaccinations. It could help get children back to school, back with their friends, back to just being kids again. The list goes on.”
Soccer Aid was initially held every two years, but since 2018, it has become an annual event.
Williams, 51, has been working with Unicef since 1998 after being introduced to the organisation by the late Ian Dury.
Robbie Williams is expected to get some minutes in his big return to the pitch at Soccer Aid tonight.
Williams last played in Soccer Aid back in 2016, only coming on as an 83rd-minute substitute.
He withdrew due to injury in 2018 taking to managerial roles for the big clash since, and sang Angels at half-time at the London Stadium in 2022.
Williams is currently in the middle of his BRITPOP tour, in support of his first new album in 10 years.

LAURA Anderson has taken a swipe at her son’s dad Gary Lucy on Father’s Day.
“Cheers to the single mums that feel sh*t for their kids on Father’s Day,” Laura penned over the top of a video of herself frowning, seemingly taking a veiled dig at her ex.
Dressed in a pink vest t-shirt and with her blonde locks in a sleek style, Laura then put a thumb up before the screen went blank and only the caption remained.
Laura welcomed daughter Bonnie, whom she shares with ex Gary, in 2023.
The couple had an on-and-off relationship, but things are now on bad terms with Laura even branding Gary a “deadbeat dad”.
Last month Gary seemingly reignited his feud with his Celebs Go Dating ex Laura after warning that “dads matter”.
The former Footballers’ Wives star made the apparent dig while sharing a throwback video of himself and his son Theodore, six.
Gary had been filmed in a restaurant as he sat next to Theodore and they could be seen giggling about “spicy” food together.
The actor then gently grabbed his son’s cheeks and said: “Look at that face, that gorgeous face..”
The video finished with Gary giving Theodore a kiss.
Gary, 43, shared the footage on Instagram but seemed to have also made a swipe at Laura, 36, in the process.
Laura has taken aim at Gary several times in the past over Bonnie being snapped with her dad rarely.
Reigniting the row himself, Gary cryptically captioned his video: “Good enough to eat … Gorgeous Boy #dadsmatter.”
Replying, one follower asked: “Thought you had a girl with Laura..?”
Gary shares Theodore with his ex-wife Natasha. They are also parents to India, 18, Elvis, 12 and Sadie, seven.
Gary and Laura met while filming E4‘s Celebs Go Dating in 2022.
At the end of 2022, the pair revealed they were expecting a child together.
They shared an announcement on Instagram containing snaps of the pair dressed up as elves at Christmas as they celebrated the joyous news.
Laura broke things off with Gary shortly after they celebrated the happy pregnancy news together.
The couple split after they attended their first baby scan together.
Gary revealed their split to The Sun in February 2023 when he said: “I love Laura but we are no longer together.
“My main drive as always is to work together to co-parent our child. I look forward to the arrival of the new baby.”
CHLOE KELLY is living it up on a dream break – before trying to complete a dream double.
The Lionesses forward jetted off with Manchester United defender Gabby George and their partners for sun-drenched hols ahead of Euro 2025.
Loanee Kelly helped Arsenal to the Champions League crown last month, ending Barcelona‘s bid for three such titles in a row.
Now she’s making the most of brief downtime before England’s defence of their Euro 2022 glory begins in Switzerland on July 5.
Kelly, 27, shared shimmering shots of a blissful getaway with her 955,000 Instagram followers.
She wrote: “UNO of Summer so far… things are hotting up pre Euros.”
George replied to Kelly’s message with “Love you” – plus a love heart.
To which 52-cap star Kelly responded: “Love you girl – 4 amigos.”
George, 28, who is Jesse Lingard’s cousin, failed to make Sarina Wiegman’s 23-women squad for next month’s Euros.
But she did beat Kelly in one sporty, time-honoured holiday activity.
One fan snuck into the pair’s online love-in by asking: “Need to know who won mini golf.”
Kelly answered that George had “fluked it”.
But the Red Devils’ centre-back offered a different interpretation of the event as she posted: “Precision I call it” – followed by a laughing emoji.
The footballing friends had earlier shared clips of their dancing, having booked a sea-view villa with a swimming pool.
And Kelly will hope mini-golf defeat is the only blot on her golden summer.
She shone for the Gunners after joining on loan from Manchester City in January.
Kelly is now in talks over a permanent switch to Arsenal after being released by City at the end of her contract – as well as chasing second-successive Euros joy under Wiegman.
Her online fans gratefully loved the 10 latest pics she posted on Instagram – some in a bikini, many with husband Scott Moore and all with a beaming smile.
One admirer wrote: “There’s def something about Chloe” and another described her as “angelic”.
A third called her “as beautiful as a goddess perfectly made by nature and an extraordinary soccer player”.
The Lionesses beat Portugal 6-0 then lost 2-1 to Spain in Nations League games a fortnight ago.
Next comes a single warm-up game against Jamaica at the King Power Stadium on June 29 before a Euros opener with France six days later.
That’s followed by England’s last two group games – against the Netherlands on July 9 and Wales four days later.
