Ange Postecoglou warns Celtic star trio must match his ambition before he hands out new deals

Ange Postecoglou has opened talks with Joe Hart, Aaron Mooy and David Turnbull over their Parkhead futures. But the Celtic boss wants to know if their ambitions match his own before handing out new deals.

At the end of this season, key trio Hart, Mooy and Turnbull will have just 12 months left on their current contracts. Keeper Hart, 35, has been the club’s No.1 since arriving from Spurs, while Aussie midfielder Mooy is now a fans’ favourite.

Scotland ace Turnbull joined Celtic in 2020 but has recently struggled to nail down a starting slot ahead of Callum McGregor, Reo Hatate, Matt O’Riley and Mooy. The Hoops boss would like to keep them all beyond 2024. But he won’t make a decision on their futures until he’s convinced their vision is aligned with his. Last summer, Nir Bitton and Tom Rogic were in a similar position and after talks with the manager, both were allowed to leave.
