Report: Ange Postecoglou linked with sensational Celtic return | OneFootball

Ange Postecoglou has been linked with a sensational return to Celtic. The Australian manager left Celtic two years ago to take over at Tottenham Hotspur but left the role in the summer despite winning the Europa League.

As per a report from The Sun, Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers is a top target for Nottingham Forest should they sack Nuno Espírito Santo. However, the report states that Ange is also a target for Forest given his relationship with Evangelos Marinakis but the report states that he could return to Celtic and replace Rodgers.

This feels unlikely in two parts – Rodgers stated on Friday that he had no intention to leave the club while Ange is unlikely to want to risk his reputation at Celtic. Ange spent two successful seasons at Celtic, winning five trophies. The next thing that fans had been hoping for was progression in Europe but a move to Spurs transpired.

Celtic have enjoyed success since Brendan Rodgers’ returned to the club, winning four trophies in two seasons as well as making strides in Europe. The latter is in the balance for this season with Celtic’s Champions League status depending on the progress of the second leg against Kairat Almaty.

You would potentially expect Ange to be more likely than Brendan to takeover at the City Ground if Forest decide to make a change in the dugout. Jose Mourinho is another name linked with the job but it appears to be that the Celtic boss will be linked with the vacancy over the next few days.
