Ange Postecoglou told Brighton answer 'stinks' as Danny Murphy hits Celtic boss with shock claim

Danny Murphy has made the astonishing claim that Ange Postecoglou's response to links with the Brighton job 'stinks'.

The Celtic boss appeared to talk down links to the Premier League side on Tuesday when he labelled them as 'irrelevant' while he concentrates on grabbing big opportunities with the Hoops. However, former Liverpool ace Murphy has slammed that response, saying that "it stinks of keeping your options open".

The Aussie's name has been touted in the direction of Brighton since the Amex Stadium departure of Graham Potter to Chelsea. However, Postecoglou insisted he isn’t interested in such outside chat and said if he is not successful at Celtic, "it won’t be other options that open up" for him, "it’ll be this one that closes".
