Ange Postecoglou will stay at Celtic long-term because the Aussie will always put his team first.
That is view of former Rangers defender Alan Hutton who insists the in-demand Postecoglou is not about to 'rock the boat or upset it' when his Hoops are chasing a potential Treble. The Scottish champions suffered a minor setback against Motherwell on Saturday as their perfect domestic Parkhead record this season was banished in a 1-1 draw with Motherwell. Celtic are now 13 clear of Rangers.
And while Postecoglou's stock is on the rise, a report in the Guardian this week put the Celtic gaffer on a 'three-man shortlist' for the job at Premier League big hitters Chelsea. Mauricio Pochettino and Vincent Kompany are said to be in the running also.

But Hutton believes Postecoglou has eyes on more success in Glasgow and that any major decisions on his future can be put on the back burner in the summer.
He told Football Insider: “He seems to me to be a guy who has always put the team first, it is not about him it is about what the team go and do.
“At the end of the day they are going for a treble and I do not think he would want to rock the boat or upset it.
“It is a situation where he can wait until the end of the season. To me it looks like he is going to stay for another few years.
“I know there is going to be a lot of interest in him and it just shows you the job that he has done.
“But I believe a new contract will be sorted in the summer and he just wants to solely concentrate on the football side of it and then he can sort himself out at the end of the season.“
