Jota pays emotional Celtic tribute to Ange Postecoglou as Tottenham boss leaves 'forever grateful' winger gutted

Jota has paid an emotional tribute to Ange Postecoglou after the boss confirmed his move from Celtic to Tottenham.

The Portuguese winger was brought in on a season-long loan deal from Benfica in 2021 and the Australian made the move permanent last summer. Jota has gone on to become a key player and mainstay under the Aussie but he will now work under a different manager after Postecoglou accepted Spurs' four-year offer to manage in the Premier League.

It's a move that has left the Parkhead fanbase gutted and their wing wizard has now paid tribute to the departing gaffer, in one of the first addresses by the Celtic playing squad on the situation. He has thanked him for the opprtunity he has provided and each moment they spent working together. Jota wrote on his Instagram: "To a man who gave me a life opportunity, never lost belief in phislosophy and marked an era. I'll forever be grateful for every moment. Best of luck gaffer!"
