New Tottenham boss Ange Postecoglou is happy to be taking the squad to Australia for preseason.

Spurs will also visit Thailand and Singapore this summer.

"Well it's a trip home, so that's brilliant," Postecoglou said on Optus Sport. I'm really excited because I do know how passionate people are for football in Australia, for the Premier League and, more importantly, our football club.

"Every trip I've done back home is always exciting for me but, I just think, for the whole group, the football club, the players, we'll enjoy it. They're very good opposition and it's a great stadium as well; I've visited the stadium (before), it's a fantastic football stadium. So, I'm really looking forward to it.

"I don't think it was by design but it's worked out pretty well that, sort of, my first official game will be back home so I'm sure I'll have plenty of family and friends there. I said it's a great way to start sort of this new era for this football club. Ultimately, from a football perspective, it's a great place to begin our programme but, more importantly, it will give everyone a really good indication of the kind of football team we want to be."
