Ange Postecoglou has revealed the Ajax approach can offer Champions League inspiration to Celtic.
The Parkhead boss has taken the club back into the top levels of European competition for the first time in five years. After Saturday’s home Premiership encounter against Motherwell, the champions will head back onto the continent for an away tie against RB Leipzig next midweek. Postecoglou, who has seen his side take one point from their opening two group games against Real Madrid and Shakhtar Donetsk, is determined that Celtic make an impact in the competition.
And, although there is a huge gulf between the finances of Europe’s elite and some of other clubs in the competition, the Australian says the Dutch giants have shown it's possible to compete. Speaking to Stan Sport Football in his homeland, Postecoglou said: “You can do one or two things. You can sort of say that’s a gap that will never be bridged because, ultimately, the rich clubs will continue to get bigger as we’ve seen.
