Treble will make Postecoglou a domestic demigod but questions swirl 

Celtic will surely complete a treble on Saturday but questions over manager’s future mean it now promises to be a strange occasion

SPURS-BOUND? Celtic boss Ange Postecoglu.

The thing about speculation is that those who bemoan it often have it within their capabilities to remove its very existence. The more Ange Postecoglou talked about his focus solely being on a Scottish Cup final between Celtic and Inverness Caledonian Thistle, the prospect of a move to Tottenham Hotspur increased.

Postecoglou will argue he was only being respectful to his employers, Celtic, and their opposition but his refusal to categorically commit to another season in Scotland is telling. If Spurs formalise their interest in the Australian next week, it feels inevitable he will accept their offer.
