Celtic Weigh Options as Postecoglou Cools on Immediate Return

Reports indicate Ange Postecoglou is not seeking a quick comeback after his brief Nottingham Forest stint.

Overview

  • Celtic appointed Martin O’Neill as interim manager after Brendan Rodgers resigned following the 3-1 loss to Hearts.
  • Football Insider reports the club has sounded out Postecoglou about returning, but its podcast says he prefers a break from management.
  • Postecoglou was dismissed by Nottingham Forest after 39 days and eight winless matches, which sources say has influenced his stance.
  • The Daily Record cites Eddie Jones, who says he keeps in contact with Postecoglou, suggesting the coach may prioritize another Premier League job over a Parkhead reunion.
  • O’Neill will lead Celtic into the Rangers match on 2 November, with his short-term results potentially informing whether he is kept until season’s end and as other candidates such as Kieran McKenna and Craig Bellamy are linked.
