Celtic secured a historic treble with a 3-1 win over Inverness Caledonian Thistle in the final of the Scottish Cup at Hampden Park. Kyogo, Jota and Liel Abada. And if this indeed was Ange Postecoglou’s last game as the manager of the club, then that was a fitting list of goalscorers to say the least.

There was a cloud of uncertainty hanging over the celebrations. Postecoglou’s future at Celtic is in doubt at the moment, with Tottenham Hotspur being linked with a move for the Australian.

The Premier League club are in search of a new manager this summer. And it looks like Postecoglou has moved to the top of their list of potential candidates to take the vacant role.

There have been rumours that Tottenham Hotspur will hold talks with Postecoglou, now that the season has come to an end. And that has left Celtic fans very worried about what is to come.

Celtic release late night message from Postecoglou

Amidst all this, Postecoglou has sent a message to the Celtic fans, after the treble was secured. As posted by the club’s official website, he said:

"Congratulations on winning the Treble! This is your success as much as it is the players and coaching staff, and every single member of the Celtic Family deserves to celebrate this incredible moment for the club.We know that the history of Celtic is littered with success, and this season’s Treble now takes its place alongside everything that has come before us.It is also a significant moment for the club, given that it sets a new world record of winning eight domestic Trebles.The aim of every Celtic team at the start of a season is to do as well as they possibly can in every competition they take part in, and that was the same for us when the campaign kicked off back in July last year.We achieved our first objective in winning the League Cup, retaining the trophy we won last season, with an impressive derby victory at Hampden which was a great occasion for everyone to celebrate.We followed that up by winning the Premiership title for the second season in a row, confirming our status as the best team in Scotland and that, in turn, has once again delivered UEFA Champions League football to the club.The level of consistency the squad showed through the season, winning 32 of the 38 games, drawing three and losing just three, is great credit to the players. We also scored 114 league goals and conceded just 34 which, again, is a testament to our style of football which has entertained our supporters throughout the season.Having won both of those competitions, we could then focus on the Scottish Cup final and the opportunity to win that trophy and so secure the Treble.I know that the Scottish Cup final is always a special occasion for supporters and one that everyone looks forward to, and so to win this famous old trophy in the sun at Hampden is an occasion to celebrate.This Treble now sits alongside the seven previous Trebles that the club has won under Jock Stein, Martin O’Neill, Brendan Rodgers and Neil Lennon, and it’s an achievement that everyone at the club is rightly very proud of.It was also special to be able to celebrate today’s success alongside so many of our supporters in Hampden, and given that every single fan plays their part in what we do through the incredible backing they give the team week in, week out, it’s something that we can all share and enjoy together.Thank you Again!Ange Postecoglou"

That is a classy message from Postecoglou to say the very least and you would expect nothing less from him. At the same time though, the only question that most fans will have about him at the moment is whether he will stay on at the club or leave.

We might find the answer to that over the coming days or weeks, now that both clubs’ seasons have come to an end. Let’s see what comes out of the matter.

There is very little doubt that Celtic fans will want Postecoglou to stay. But if he does leave, he will with the best wishes of the supporters. He has done a remarkable job since arriving.
