With Ange Postecoglou closing in on a move to Tottenham Hotspur, Celtic need to accelerate their search for a new manager. It would be a mistake to let things drag on but at the same time, the club must be absolutely sure that they are bringing the right man in for the job. Thus, it is important to find the right balance.
The club must bring in a manager who can get the best out of this current squad. Celtic are the treble winners and starting from scratch, just because a new boss comes in, would not be ideal.
Celtic fans will be hoping for a big name appointment to replace the outgoing Postecoglou, who won five trophies in two seasons at Parkhead. And one of the biggest managers available right now is Graham Potter.
Not too long ago, Potter was considered the best English manager in football. But his reputation has suffered a lot following a disastrous spell at Chelsea.
Potter to Celtic news amid next manager search
As reported by the Daily Mail (via Football Scotland), Potter is one of the managers who will be sounded out by Celtic. There will be competition though as there is interest in him from England and abroad.
After how things went for Potter at Chelsea, he needs to resurrect his career. And Celtic might be the perfect place to do that. He would get the chance to compete for title as well as develop young players, while having a spot in the Champions League all at the same time.
Fans will have their doubts about Potter though. His run at Chelsea was a complete failure. He struggled in every aspect of the job and one has to wonder if he would be able to cope with the pressure of winning every week that comes at Parkhead.
