Celtic fans won’t want to hear me say it.
But I’m sorry. If Tottenham Hotspur want Ange Postecoglou – he will be their next manager. There isn’t even a debate about it. If this was Bournemouth or Fulham, I don’t think we’d even be asking the question. Even if it was a huge club in Leeds United – who are now in the Championship – he probably wouldn’t fancy it. Because, trust me, that league is a landmine for gaffers.
But this is a different proposition for Ange. Spurs are one of ‘The Big Six’ in the Premier League. This is Tottenham Hotspur who are coming for you. No-one can blame or vilify him if he wants to take that opportunity. Because this is a step to what I imagine he’s always wanted – to manage at an elite level. And if he excels at Spurs, he might even get a chance to go higher. So, if they want him, it’s happening. He can’t turn it down. Off the back of winning a Treble with Celtic, the timing might be just right. Remember, only two years ago Ange was still in Japan waiting for ANY opportunity in Europe.
