Ange Postecoglou 'living the dream' at Celtic as he quashes English Premier League exit talk

Ange Postecoglou admits he is living the dream at Celtic and has no interest in quitting the club after chat over the English Premier League.

The Aussie boss was linked with the Brighton job after Graham Potter's departure for Chelsea to take over from the axed Thomas Tuchel while he has also been tipped to replace former Hoops gaffer Brendan Rodgers at Leicester City - with the Foxes boss under increased pressure after a horror start to the new season. His side sit bottom of the table with just one point from seven games to date.

Postecoglou is back in Australia for a spell as part of a Celtic team of officials to discuss the Sydney Super Cup details with the tournament taking place in November during the World Cup. However, during an interview with Fox News Australia when asked about Leicester he admitted it isn't on his radar with all his focus on his 'massive' job at Parkhead.

After winning back the Premiership crown from Rangers last season and lifting the Premier Sports Cup in a domestic debut campaign double - he's out to do it all again while making a splash in the Champions League.

When asked about Leicester, he said: "It's not really on my radar. It's a bit like our players, I keep saying to them that if they do what they do well, all this other stuff takes care of itself, whatever their ambitions or my ambitions may be.

"My ambition's always been the same wherever I've been, to be as successful as I can. I haven't charted a course that's got me to where I am today, I've just tried to do it to the best of my ability and opportunities arise from there.

"Right now, I'm at a massive football club, mate. I'm living the dream, I'm enjoying every minute of it, and I'm determined to bring as much success as I can to it while I'm here."
