Ange Postecoglou has admitted for the first time that he was never going to be Celtic’s long-term saviour – but believes Brendan Rodgers might be.

The Aussie held his first media conference as Tottenham boss at the club’s training ground in Enfield on Monday, one month on from his shock decision to quit Scotland’s champions after lifting five trophies in two seasons.

In a candid revelation, Postecoglou has conceded it was always his intention to move on while the going was still good in Glasgow’s east end, and before he was reputationally tarnished as damaged goods from Down Under.

He said: “Yes, absolutely it required soul searching to leave. My wife and my kids loved it up there and my whole family was really happy.
