Are you tired of all the chatter about Ange Postecoglou leaving Celtic for Leeds United? Well, there’s good news this afternoon with BBC Sport reporting they are set to announce their new manager.
The broadcaster has stated that Leeds will announce former Watford manager Javi Gracia as their new boss, ending their search after the departure of Jesse Marsch. Other outlets, such as Leeds Live, say he is already at Elland Road.
The Postecoglou to Leeds stuff has been a tiresome distraction over the last few weeks with players, coach John Kennedy and the manager himself all asked about it.
Ange Postecoglou isn’t going anywhere right now
There was a unified front, of course, but it was silly nonetheless. For your more anxious supporter, it was also a worry.
It even popped up again this morning after quotes from an Australian radio sports show did the rounds across many Scottish press outlets and even most of the Celtic websites.
Along the way, most supporters and Celtic-leaning pundits have maintained Postecoglou is going nowhere at the moment and looks thoroughly committed to the Bhoys.
Just as it was said when the manager was linked with previous jobs in the English Premier League. Everyone is right again.
We all know Postecoglou isn’t going to stay at Celtic forever, but the smart money is on it being a natural parting of the ways rather than a shock mid-season exit.
We will see the signs coming, it will be done in an open and honest way. At least, that’s the trust that the manager has earned to date.
Thankfully the Leeds saga is about to be put to bed and we can all get a bit of peace about this subject. Until the next job pops up and everyone loses their head again!
