Ex-Celtic boss Ange Postecoglou has branded Spurs an 'enormous club' as he revealed his excitement at taking on the Premier League..
The Australian gave his first interview to the North London club as he looked ahead to pre-season. Postecoglou stunned the Hoops faithful when he agreed to make the move to Tottenham Hotspur after delivering a treble last month. The successful Celtic manager left just days after the Scottish Cup triumph over Inverness making it five trophies in two seasons in Glasgow.
Celtic moved quickly to bring back Brendan Rodgers for his second spell at the club. The double treble winner returned after being sacked at Leicester City last season. Postecoglou is now gearing up for a huge test with games against Jurgen Klopp, Pep Guardiola and Erik ten Hag. Spurs will only play on the domestic front this season after missing out entirely on Europe after finishing eighth in the league.

But Postecoglou is buzzing with the challenge ahead.
Speaking to SPURSPLAY, he said: "I love to win mate, that’s the main thing, and I’ve done that wherever I’ve been. The football is designed to bring success.
"Alongside that it’s really important to me that there is an element of what I think most fans and players want to be associated with, and that’s football that’s exciting, that people talk about, not just the end result but also the manner in which you played your football.
"“I’m very excited about the challenge ahead - an enormous football club, exciting league, I guess all the things you strive for in your professional career. It’s great to be here and getting ready to work.”
Postecoglou has vowed to bring his exciting brand of football which led him to success at Celtic.
The former Socceroo's international boss transformed Celtic into a winning machine bringing over a host of stars from his successful stint in Japan, as he lifted the back to back Premiership titles.
Postecoglou was never drawn on his iconic "we never stop" mantra when interviewed by his new club he promised an "aggressive approach" from his Spurs side.
He added: "People want to see their team scoring goals, being exciting, not conceding goals, being aggressive in their approach, all these kinds of things that everyone seeks in their own football team.
"That’s what I want to try to provide. The basis of it will be that we want to be a team that wins things and, ultimately, entertains our fans."
