Anthony Joseph has claimed that Celtic have verbally agreed terms with Ange Postecoglou to take over as manager.
After the reports about Eddie How Celtic fans will be wary of the long running saga to replace Neil Lennon finally coming to an end.
If an agreement is in place with the Australian there are still a number of hurdles to overcome before the deal can be announced.
Postecoglou will need to get a Work Permit to be employed in the UK with UEFA negotiations required over the 55-year-old not having a Pro Coaching Licence.
Ange Postecoglou has verbally agreed personal terms with Celtic to become their new manager.
Celtic club hope to have the former Australia boss signed and through quarantine in time for their training camp in Wales.

It is now a certainty that Postecoglou won’t be on the training ground at Lennoxtown for the first day of pre-season training on June 17.
The first few days are all about fitness but after a disastrous season having a new voice and direction on the training ground is badly needed for a squad low on confidence and numbers.
