The former Hoops boss has been touted for a possible return since being out of work
Ange Postecoglou has categorically ruled out returning to Celtic as manager.
The Aussie scooped five of the six trophies available to him during his time at Parkhead boss, claiming a domestic Treble in 2023 before leaving to take the reigns at Tottenham Hotspur.
Postecoglou guided Spurs to a fifth placed finish in his first season to qualify for the Champions League.
His second proved trick in terms of the Premier League as he put all his eggs into the Europa League basket.
Despite finishing 17th, Tottenham beat Manchester United in the Europa League Final to back up the boss' claim that he "always winds a trophy" in his second season.
That wasn't enough to save him from the sack last summer however, while the less said about a 39-day stint in charge of Nottingham Forest earlier this season, the better.
With Celtic on the hunt for a new permanent boss, links to a Parkhead return for the 60-year-old were inevitable, with Martin O'Neill not really a viable long term option when he'll be 74 next month.
But Postecoglou has dumped a bucket of cold water over those suggestions, insisting that he simply doesn't go back.
“In terms of going back, I don’t go back," he told the Overlap. I don’t think that’s been my career. Whatever the next step it’ll be something new.
"I loved Celtic. If I was younger, I probably would’ve stayed there longer. I think I could have made progress with them in Europe.
"The whole two years, I was within a community that was just so passionate, it'a crazy how passionate they are about their football club.
"I was fortunate we had success. It's a positive experience and I loved every minute of it. I look back on it fondly but I won't go back. Thats how my career's played out."
