Celtic hopes of holding on to Ange Postecoglou look set to be tested to the max when Tottenham Hotspur launch their move for the Australian after Saturday’s Scottish Cup Final.
Record Sport understands the Parkhead club’s top brass are already bracing themselves for an official approach to come from north London, possibly as early as next week, after sources in the capital confirmed Postecoglou’s name is now at the top of Spurs’ wanted list. The major development comes just days after Record Sport revealed Aussie super agent Frank Trimboli – a close confidant of Spurs chairman Daniel Levy – was in Glasgow at the weekend as a VIP guest at the club’s title party.
It’s understood Trimboli has played a key role in persuading Levy to turn his attention to Postecoglou after a string of botched attempts at finding a replacement for Antonio Conte – the latest of which saw Feyenoord boss Arne Slot rule himself out of the running last week.
