Ange Postecoglou, head coach of Tottenham Hotspur, has been named Premier League Manager of the Month for August 2023.

The 58-year-old joined Spurs from Celtic in June as the club’s permanent successor to Antonio Conte, and he has had a successful first season in north London.

Despite losing all-time leading scorer Harry Kane to Bayern Munich just one day before the start of the Premier League season, Postecoglou’s Tottenham were unbeaten in August.

They started the season with a credible 2-2 draw against Brentford before winning their first win a week later at home against Manchester United, defeating the Red Devils 2-0.

Tottenham then finished August with a 2-0 win at Bournemouth. They are now second in the Premier League table after a 5-2 win against Burnley ahead to the September international break.

Due to his charm and the team’s refreshing aggressive style of play, Postecoglou, the first Greek and first Australian manager in the Premier League, has been an instant fan favorite at Tottenham.

They return to action at home on Saturday against Sheffield United before traveling to north London rivals Arsenal the following Sunday.
