Tottenham are back in Europe's top competition after sealing a spot in the 2025/26 UEFA Champions League.
Ange Postecoglou led Spurs to a first trophy in 17 years at the back end of 2024/25 as they beat Manchester United in the Europa League final in Bilbao.
That secured a 'back-door' spot in the UCL, but Spurs' 17th place finish in the Premier League cost Postecoglou his job, with Thomas Frank replacing him in North London.

It's Tottenham's seventh season competing in the Champions League with their best run coming in 2018/19 as Mauricio Pochettino's team lost out to Liverpool in the final.
