British media 'The Athletic' reported on the 11th (Korea time) 'Ryan Mason negotiated with Anderlecht but will remain at Tottenham'
The Athletic said: "'Tottenham head coach Mason negotiated to be sworn in as the new manager of Anderlecht. He spoke with the Belgian club. It meant that the 33-year-old Mason would become the first official first team manager after ending his long relationship with Tottenham.
Anderlecht is a prestigious Belgian club. Although he has not reached the championship since the 2016-2017 season, he is still capable of aiming to win the league. It is a team that can often challenge the European competition.
Leading Anderlecht back to winning the league or showing good performance in the European competition could have given coach Mason a chance to coach the big league club immediately.
The Athletic 'But after this week's negotiations, Mason and Anderlecht agreed to scrap it. Mason, who is part of Enze Postecoglou's coaching staff and enjoys his job, will continue to work for Tottenham'
The Athletic said: "'Mason retained his position on the first team staff even when Postecoglou took over at Tottenham. He has twice previously served as Tottenham's acting head coach. 'It was when Jose Mourinho was fired in the 2020-2021 season, when Antonio Conte was fired in the 2022-2023 season.'"

Mason is from Tottenham Youth and took the pure-blooded elite course to the first team. From the 2014-2015 season, he seemed to be establishing himself as the core of Tottenham. Son Heung-min, who joined Tottenham in 2015, began his relationship.
However, he began to lose ground in the competition for the starting lineup in the 2015-2016 season. Eventually, he moved to Hull City.
A turning point in life has come in 2017. He suffered a fractured skull. I ended my career early.
Mason went straight into leadership. He quickly grew into a first-team coach after serving as a coach for Tottenham's youth team.
