Football Journo turned agent Tony Rallis has told an A-League podcast that Ange Postecoglou was told he couldn’t bring any of his own coaches into the club before his move to Celtic.

Rallis made the claim came from an agent in the game.

Tony Rallis: "My understanding is that Celtic have told Ange [Postecoglou] that he has to develop and inherit his coaching staff from within. He wasn't allowed to take any of his staff." [TripleM]https://t.co/n6aB9okNsT

This is a sensitive topic for Celtic fans. They saw Neil Lennon inherit staff that wasn’t his, they don’t want to see interference from suits on who the manager can and can’t bring into the football club.

Ange was asked about this at the fan media press conference that CeltsAreHere attended and did say he would look at bringing some of his own people in over time but was in no hurry.

We can’t confirm the comments made from Rallis but what we can confirm is when Eddie Howe was offered a blank canvas when it came to his backroom staff – we don’t see why Ange should be any different.

The proof will be in the pudding and we’ll see who is in the coaching staff come the end of the season.
