Tottenham boss Ange Postecoglou is growing increasingly frustrated with ongoing leaks from inside the club, vowing to uncover the culprit behind the unauthorized team news spills. After rumors surfaced online about Wilson Odobert missing Spurs’ Europa League match against Eintracht Frankfurt—despite the player making the squad—the issue has reached a boiling point for the Australian manager.
Although Odobert didn’t play in Thursday’s 1-1 draw, his unexpected inclusion highlighted how accurate the leaked information was. Postecoglou is convinced the source isn’t a player or agent but rather someone closer to internal operations. The leaks, which he says began last year, include sensitive medical and tactical details.
Insisting that “agents definitely aren’t involved,” Postecoglou described the language in the leaks as too precise to come from outside sources. He stressed that his tight-knit communication style and respect for player privacy make the continued flow of information both baffling and damaging.
Postecoglou didn’t hold back when discussing the situation, joking that he’ll “get out the big bat and pummel people” to find the mole. While light-hearted in tone, his frustration was clear as he emphasized how harmful the leaks are to both the team’s performance and the trust within the club.
The manager noted that Tottenham’s already facing enough challenges and doesn’t need added disruption. He’s urging whoever is responsible to “come to their senses,” stating the leaks are not only unhelpful but a direct hit to the club’s professionalism and culture.
Though the specific source hasn’t been identified, Postecoglou made it clear that internal investigations are ongoing. He believes it’s just a matter of time before they find the person responsible and deal with the issue privately.
In closing, he highlighted how leaks hurt both the club’s strategy and individual players. Whether it’s about injury details or tactical plans, Tottenham is aiming to operate with greater discipline—and that starts with keeping sensitive information behind closed doors.
