Tottenham turn to Ange Postecoglou as "primary candidate" to be next manager
The Celtic boss is being heavily linked with the Premier League club
Tottenham Hotspur have turned to Celtic boss Ange Postecoglou as their "primary candidate" to become their next manager.
The Premier League side have been on the hunt for a new head coach since parting ways with Antonio Conte two months ago.
The Independent are reporting that Spurs could make a move for the Australian after being rejected by Feyenoord manager Arne Slot.
Journalist Miguel Delaney said: "Tottenham turn to Postecoglou as a primary candidate.
"Feyenoord convinced Slot to give them a season in Champions League, but there were also questions about working in Spurs' structure."
It is not the first time the Australian has been linked with a move down South.
Leeds United and Leicester City were amongst clubs who were reportedly interested in him.
Postecoglou has led Celtic to two league titles in his two years in Scotland, winning the League Cup in both seasons as well.
His side will have the chance to win the domestic treble in June when they face Inverness in the Scottish Cup final.
