Ange Postecoglou didn’t last long at Nottingham Forest but he could land a new job just five months after his Tottenham sacking.
Tottenham Hotspur have been gradually finding their rhythm again this season after parting ways with Ange Postecoglou, despite the Australian’s strong run in Europe before his exit.
Thomas Frank has come in and steadied the ship, guiding Spurs to third place in the Premier League table after Postecoglou’s dismal 17th-place finish last term.
There is still plenty of work to be done, with Frank continuing to reshape the side, while Postecoglou himself has endured a difficult spell since he departed from north London.
Celtic eye Ange Postecoglou return five months after Tottenham exit
Ange Postecoglou made a quick return to Premier League management back in September following his exit from Tottenham in July, but things quickly unravelled.
The Australian took charge of Nottingham Forest, replacing former Spurs boss Nuno Espirito Santo, yet failed to secure a single win in eight games and was dismissed after just 39 days in charge.
According to Football Insider, Celtic are now weighing up an approach for the 60-year-old, with the Scottish champions reportedly keen to bring him back to Glasgow following Brendan Rodgers’ resignation.

Postecoglou’s legacy at Spurs and possible Celtic reunion
Ange Postecoglou will always be remembered as the man who delivered silverware to N17 after a 17-year wait, but back-to-back sackings will have undoubtedly dented his standing in English football.
The Australian has often felt underappreciated, famously referencing Daniel Levy’s comments about wanting to try “something different” after past failures with more established winners.
His recent Premier League record has not done him any favours, and he will now be determined to rebuild his reputation.
A return to Celtic, where he previously thrived and enjoyed immense success, could well be the ideal platform to do just that.
