Tottenham boss Ange Postecoglou admits a Premier League was never a career goal.

Postecoglou held his first media conference as Spurs manager on Monday.

Of any Premier League ambitions, he said: "I can't say it was a goal. I've come literally from the other side of the world so I've just wanted to experience what I can in my career and see where that takes me.

"Every challenge I've had I've enjoyed and embraced, whether that's in different countries, different league, national team or club football. But the Premier League is the strongest competition. Some of the best managers in the world are in this competition, some of the strongest teams in the world are in this competition.

"Why wouldn't you want to embrace that? It's another opportunity to do what I do in a different competition, with different fundamentals around it and experience something else in my career. It wasn't an ambition of mine but certainly everything I've done I've tried to do to the best of my ability, which has given me a career were I've realised everything I've wanted to do."
