Ange Postecoglou to Leicester ridiculed by Celtic legend who asks 'why would you leave for a relegation battle?'

Assured Kenny Dalglish reckons the one means Ange Postecoglou would depart Celtic is that if a high six English Premier League aspect got here calling.

Forward of Roberto De Zerbi's appointment as Brighton boss the Australian was closely linked with a transfer to succeed Graham Potter on the Amex, and has now been touted south of the border as a possible alternative for Brendan Rodgers ought to he be axed at Leicester Metropolis with the Foxes sitting all-time low of the desk after a disappointing begin to the season.

Nevertheless, Dalglish insists there isn't any cause for Postecoglou to stroll away from the Scottish Premiership title battle in addition to Champions League soccer for a scrap for survival within the English high flight. The previous Liverpool and Celtic boss insists there's a "particular bond" between the Parkhead followers and the boss that will probably be robust for potential suitors to interrupt if they arrive in with a proposal.

Writing in his Sunday Submit column, Dalglish mentioned: "Ange has been on the centre of some hypothesis, because of the wonderful job he has been doing at Celtic. Earlier than Graham Potter left Brighton for Chelsea just lately, by all accounts Ange was a reputation on Albion’s short-list.

"Now he's nonetheless being talked about in England as a contender for the Leicester Metropolis job, ought to there be a parting of the methods with Brendan Rodgers. For me, although, that could be a non-starter. Why would Ange wish to depart Celtic to go there? Why would he depart a Champions League membership for a crew that will effectively find yourself combating a relegation battle within the Premier League? So I might doubt that Ange would have a membership equivalent to Leicester Metropolis on his radar.

"He has rebuilt Celtic. The followers love him, and he loves the followers. It will take one thing particular to interrupt up that relationship. If he was linked with a top-six membership down south, then that could be a unique story. That type of factor could be a possible game-changer."
