Ange rewards his ultimate Spurs champion with key coaching role as Tottenham reveal Team Postecoglou in full

Ange Postecoglou has assembled his Tottenham Hotspur backroom staff and there's a familiar lieutenant by the Aussie's side.

The former Celtic boss left Glasgow with no members of his Hoops coaching staff, having brought Socceroos hero Harry Kewell into the fold at Lennoxtown. He arrived solo from Yokohama Marinos and embedded the culture of his style in to existing Parkhead servants John Kennedy and Gavin Strachan. Both of which he reportedly wanted to join him on his London adventure, but returning coach Brendan Rodgers wanted assistant Kennedy as part of his Glasgow renaissance.

Down south, Postecoglou was handed Rodgers' former right-hand man in Chris Davies, who has been confirmed as senior assistant coach in the Aussie's new set-up. And similar to his appointment of Kewell in Scotland, Postecoglou has relied on his Aussie links to bring former Crystal Palace skipper Mile Jedinak to Spurs. He was also captain of his national side during Postecoglou's stint.
