Ange Postecoglou, the manager of Tottenham, is planning to adopt a transfer policy similar to that of Jurgen Klopp at Liverpool. He aims to bring in players who are committed to the club’s goals and are not solely focused on participating in the Champions League.
Postecoglou emphasized the importance of recruiting players with the right character and mindset, stating that he has successfully brought in the players he wants despite the club not being in the Champions League. Tottenham, currently fifth in the league, is striving to secure a spot in the Champions League.
However, Postecoglou has stressed that the club’s focus is not solely on financial gains or achieving Champions League qualification, but on overall progress and improvement as a team. He echoed Klopp’s sentiment of not pursuing players whose decisions are based solely on the prospect of playing in the top European competition.
Klopp’s approach at Liverpool, where he prioritized players committed to the club’s vision rather than those focused only on Champions League participation, has proven successful. Despite missing out on Champions League qualification last year, Klopp’s team is now in contention for the Premier League title.
