JOHN HARTSON says that Ange Postecoglou must be backed in the transfer market this summer if Celtic are to compete in the Champions League next season, saying he has earned the trust of the board with his track record of success with signings.
Mark Lawwell, son of former Celtic chief executive Peter, was appointed as the club’s head of scouting and recruitment at the weekend, but Hartson believes that Postecoglou has to maintain the final say on transfers.
