Since taking the reins at Tottenham Hotspur in 2023, Ange Postecoglou has endured his ups and downs.
In terms of the latter, the Australian has had to deal with an unbelievable number of injuries, which derailed his incredible start to last season and sees his team down in 12th in the Premier League this year.
However, one of the undeniable successes of his time in North London is how he took what was a diabolically boring team to watch under Antonio Conte and turned them into arguably the most entertaining in the league.
Moreover, the former Celtic boss is trying to reshape the squad with younger, less experienced but more promising players for the long term, whereas that didn't feel like a goal under Conte, especially as one of the players he sold in 2022 is now back in the Premier League and worth an astonishing 2300% more than the fee he left for.
Spurs' 2022 sales
Before getting to the player in question, it's worth looking at a couple of other sales made that summer, starting with an attacker who could never quite get to grips with English football: Steven Bergwijn.
The Dutch winger was undeniably talented and had some stellar moments during his time with the North Londoners - like that late comeback against Leicester City.
However, as he never established himself as a key member of the first team, it made sense to move him on when Ajax came in with an offer of around £26m in July 2022.
The 27-year-old winger would go on to score 29 goals and provide 12 assists in 83 appearances for the Amsterdam side before agreeing to join Saudi Pro League outfit Al-Ittihad for around £17.7m in September.
Since then, he has scored eight goals and provided six assists in 21 games while picking up a salary of £147k-per-week.
Another exit from the summer of 2022 was centre-back and American international Cameron Carter-Vickers, who rejoined Celtic on a permanent deal for around £6m after spending the previous season on loan with the Scottish giants.
The Tottenham academy gem only made five first-team appearances for the club but has since become a key member of the Hoops' first team, racking up 146 appearances, in which he's scored seven goals, provided two assists, won three league titles, three League Cups and two Scottish Cups as well.
However, there was another exit that summer, a player who has since returned to the top flight and is now millions more than he was when he left Spurs.

Now, it's famously difficult to judge how good a young player is and how good they could one day be, so every club has several youngsters they probably let go too soon, and in this instance, that youngster was Jack Clarke.
The Englishman joined Spurs from Leeds United in 2019 for about £8.5m, but after a number of lacklustre loan spells back with the Whites, Queens Park Rangers, Stoke City and a slightly better six months with Sunderland, the club opted to sell him to the latter in July 2022 for a fee reportedly as low as £750k, but with a 25% sell-on clause.
Over the next two seasons, the often "unplayable" ace, as dubbed by pundit Alan Clarke, racked up a brilliant haul of 26 goals and 18 assists in just 92 appearances for the Black Cats, which comes to an average of a goal involvement every 2.09 games, which was also enough to convince Ipswich Town to splash £15m on him in the summer.
Now, while the talent is undeniably there, it would be fair to say that the York-born dynamo has struggled at points this season.
The step-up to the top flight has seen his output come down by a significant margin, but even then, he's been able to score three goals and provide four assists in 23 appearances, totalling just 883 minutes.
That means he's still been able to average a goal involvement every 3.28 games for the Tractor Boys or, more impressively, every 126.14 minutes.
This, combined with his previous campaigns and the fact he's still just 24, has seen his valuation remain relatively high, with Football Transfers pricing him at €21.7m, which is about £18m or a massive 2300% increase on the price Spurs sold him for under Conte.
Ultimately, the club probably made the right call for Clarke's career, but we reckon they might regret letting him go for such a low fee.
