Ex-Celtic boss Ange Postecoglou 'considering' Saudi offer
The former Celtic manager was sacked by Tottenham 10 days ago, despite leading them to a Europa League victory just 16 days prior. Spurs owner Daniel Levy dismissed him after a disappointing league campaign that saw the club finish 17th in the Premier League. The decision was contentious, splitting the fan base and seeming to be unpopular with the players, several of whom paid significant tributes to the Australian. This leaves Postecoglou as a free agent, contemplating his next career move, which could potentially revitalise his career. The Scottish Sun reports that Al-Alhi, who are preparing for the possible departure of current boss Matthias Jaissle, have made an approach. Despite Jaissle leading the team to an AFC Champions League win last month, his future remains uncertain. Postecoglou is considering replacing him, although he is also thought to have received offers to remain in England or move elsewhere in Europe. He is believed to favour another Premier League stint, but a lucrative Middle Eastern offer could prove enticing.
