Brian Laudrup predicts gnawing Celtic regret if Ange joins Spurs but senses Michael Beale delight if exit happens

Rangers icon Brian Laudrup is convinced Ange Postecoglou possesses the managerial chops to turn around toiling Tottenham Hotspur.

And the Danish legend believes a Celtic exit would be both a body blow for his current team and a major boost for Michael Beale amid his major Ibrox revamp. The 54-year-old is a major admirer of the Parkhead boss and believes his ability would be a smash-hit in the English Premier League with a downtrodden side itching for a saviour. And he is under no doubt a potential farewell to Glasgow will breathe new life into a Rangers side who have been left second best during Postecoglou's time with Celtic.

And Spurs' nightmare season which led to Antonio Conte's explosive exit has opened the door to a new leader in north London capable of turning their fortunes around. Laudrup believes it might be the right move for both the 57-year-old and the team keen to secure his services. Speaking in his Daily Mail column, he said: "I think this is a great time to take the Tottenham job. I really do. Given all their recent woes, a manager with a clear plan has an opportunity to go there, make an impact and be viewed as a saviour. Will that be Ange Postecoglou? Time will tell. But there's no doubt further news of Spurs' intentions will be eagerly awaited. On both sides of Glasgow.
