Tottenham chairman Levy explains reasons for Postecoglou hire

Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy says Ange Postecoglou is a manager who fits with the club's traditions.

Postecoglou was appointed new manager this week.

And Levy says the Australian will be a departure from former managers Antonio Conte and Jose Mourinho.

Levy said on a call with supporters clubs: “We made a conscious decision that we wanted a coach who would understand what we really wanted as a club, which was to play attacking football, to enable everyone to enjoy coming to a match and be entertained, and also someone who understood the importance of the academy."
