Pundit fears Celtic set for ‘massive loss’ after source’s Ange Postecoglou reveal
Ange Postecoglou would be “very interested” in leaving Celtic to move to a Premier League club if the right offer came in.
That’s according to former Leeds United stopper Paddy Kenny, speaking exclusively to Football Insider about the Australian’s future.
Sources told Football Insider on 24 September that Celtic are keen to tie Postecoglu down to an improved long-term deal amid Premier League interest.
The Scotsman reported the same day that Postecoglou could be lined up by the Foxes to replace Rodgers at the King Power Stadium.
When asked if Postecoglou has earned a Premier League move during his short time in Scotland, Kenny told Football Insider correspondent Ben Wild, “It’s looking like it.
“It sounds like there is more than one team interested in him. I saw an interview from him when he was linked with Brighton and he didn’t say he wouldn’t want to leave.
“So if something came up I’m sure he would be very interested. It would be a massive loss to Celtic because of how well they have done since he came in.
“The interest is no surprise because he has been impressive and I have always said I am backing them to win the league again this season.”
Postecoglu has enhanced his reputation during his 14 months at Celtic, where he steered the club to the Scottish Premiership title at the first attempt.
The Glasgow giants also won the Scottish League Cup during his first campaign and have also returned to the Champions League group stage.
