Ange Postecoglou set for Celtic contract extension

Ange Postecoglou set for Celtic contract extension

CELTIC boss Ange Postecoglou is set to be offered a contract extension with the Glasgow club in the wake of his side's title triumph, according to reports.

The Greek-Australian was appointed as manager of the Parkhead outfit last summer and has wasted no time in stamping his authority on the squad, making over a dozen signings as others have departed the east end.

The former Yokohama F. Marinos manager's debut campaign in Scotland ended with a domestic double. The Premier Sports Cup was lifted in December, while the Premiership title was wrapped up on Wednesday night courtesy of a 1-1 draw at Tannadice.

Supporters have become enamoured with Postecoglou's style of play as well as the man himself, and the Celtic board are about to move to keep the ex-Australia boss tied to the club.

The Daily Record report that Celtic chiefs will sit down with Postecoglou 'in the coming weeks' with the champions 'determined to tie him down long term'.
