Tottenham Hotspur is said to have considered Ajax manager Francesco Farioli as a potential replacement for Ange Postecoglou.
FAROLI, 36, took the lead over the Dutch side at the start of this season after he had previously managed the French side Nice and Turkish team Alanyaspor.
Each sun is considered one of the potential successors of Postecoglou, whose task is said to be in danger, regardless of whether Spurs wins the Europa League.
Although the Italian manager is highly regarded thanks to the job he did this season in Amsterdam, he had to deal with Hartzeer on the last day of the Eredivisie campaign.
After he had led the Dutch competition comfortably to the last phases of the season, Ajax only took two points of their last four games to allow Rivals PSV to lead them to the title.
However, it is still thought that Faroli is admired by his colleague -Italian Fabio Paraticians, who could return to the North London side after his prohibition of the sport.
Paraticians, 56, was the director of the LilyWhites of football between 2021 and 2023 before he was forbidden for actions related to financial malpractices while he was in the Serie A Giants Juventus.
That saw him broadcast out of the sport in a worldwide ban imposed by the Italian FA and later extended by FIFA for false accounting.
Although Spurs has a chance to secure a first trophy since the 2008 League Cup, their form of competition under Postcoglou is miserable.
After the 2-0 loss on Friday evening for Aston Villa, they are 17th in the Premier League with only 38 points of 37 games.
Given that they are only one place under their Europa League -Final opponents Manchester United, the confrontation in Bilbao gets extra meaning, whereby the winner automatically gains access to the Champions League of next season.
In the run -up to the final, Postecoglou has challenged his players to break the team's drought by performing at their best if it matters the most.
He said: “Until you really do it, then you're an honest game for people to say” “You have always picked it a bit on the big stage” and what you should try to do is break that cycle.
'There must be a higher goal than closing people's mouth. I think it's more about '' can you have an impact? '' '
“I often tell the players that you want to be able to go to the clubs you have served at the end of your career and know that you have had an impact.”
The winner-takes-all final will be played in San Mames Stadium of Athletic Club on Wednesday 21 May.
