Ange Postecoglou left fuming after Spurs missed out on 'good opportunity' in hilarious Lewis Hamilton joke

Ange Postecoglou hilariously joked that Tottenham missed out on a 'good opportunity' as he referenced Lewis Hamilton's shock move to Ferrari.

Hamilton sent shockwaves through the F1 world after leaving Mercedes for Ferrari in a deal which begins from the 2025 season.

His transfer was the 'biggest signing of deadline day' in an underwhelming window in the football world, with few big-money signings taking place.

And Postecoglou seemed to agree as he joked that Spurs missed out on a 'good opportunity' before revealing he was talking about Hamilton's switch to Ferrari. Check it out below:

Speaking at his pre-match press conference, he said: "The only disappointing one for us was that I felt there was a good opportunity for us, but the club didn't feel it was right and he ended up going elsewhere.

"He went to Ferrari instead... I got you all going there didn't I? I felt you needed something after a bit of a flat day yesterday."

After joking about Hamilton, the Australian manager then shared his actual thoughts on his side's business last month.

The North London outfit recruited Timo Werner and Radu Dragusin, with the 58-year-old pleased with his signings ahead of the second half of the season.

"We had clear objectives," he explained. "We had a gap at centre-back after letting Davinson Sanchez go and getting Radu in was great.

"Getting Timo early also excellent. We've had injuries with Sonny away, and already he's made a contribution. If we left it to the last day it takes time to settle. Both have settled well.

"With outgoings, we got some good loans.. With Alejo it's great for him to get game time at a good club. Also players like Ashley Phillips and Alfie Devine got good loans."

Fourth-placed Spurs beat Brentford 3-2 on Wednesday and return to action on Saturday against Everton.
