Ange Postecoglou may not be returning to Celtic, but his comments on Kjetil Knutsen will provide plenty of excitement for supporters.
Figures around Postecoglou said a Celtic return is unlikely and the Australian is nowhere to be seen on the shortlist.
Wilfried Nancy appears to be the frontrunner for the role, while 67 Hail Hail have revealed that Knutsen is interested in joining the Hoops.
Celtic fans want Knutsen and after hearing what Postecoglou had to say, he sounds like the perfect option.

Ange Postecoglou on Kjetil Knutsen
The former Hoops boss went up against the Norwegian in the Europa League semi-finals and swept them aside with a 5-1 aggregate win.
Postecoglou was still impressed with the performance though, and before the game, hailed Knutsen for the identity he had forged at the Norwegian side.
He said: “A good guy. Obviously, I met him a few years back, and he has done really well with them [Bodo/Glimt].
“He has had a real clear identity about the way he wants his team to play.
“He’s created a real strong culture at the club, not just from a football perspective but from a mental perspective, and you see that. He has done very well.”
Kjetil Knutsen faces a fight to end Bodo/Glimt stint on a high
Knutsen’s contract is up in December and that means he has a chance to go out on a high with a fifth league title in six years.
However, that is under threat with only two league games of the season remaining as they trail current table toppers Viking by one point.
They also have the rest of their Champions League campaign to contend with before regrouping to begin their new season in March 2026.
By that point, the 57-year-old may be in the Celtic dugout.
