Tottenham have appointed former Celtic manager Ange Postecoglou as their head coach on a four-year deal.

The 57-year-old Australian, who won the domestic treble with Celtic this season, moves south to London to replace Antonio Conte.

Conte was sacked in late March, with Cristian Stellini and Ryan Mason taking temporary charge.

Postecoglou will officially join Spurs on July 1.

“Ange brings a positive mentality and a fast, attacking style of play. He has a strong track record of developing players and an understanding of the importance of the link from the academy –– everything that is important to our club,” Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy said on the club’s website. “We are excited to have Ange join us as we prepare for the season ahead.”
