Ange Postecoglou returns to football as UEFA Technical Observer

·

Former Celtic and Nottingham Forest manager Ange Postecoglou has returned to football just three months after his brief stint at Nottingham Forest ended following a string of eight winless games.

The Greek Australian, who previously won five trophies in two years with Celtic, including a treble, and guided Spurs to Europa League glory, has joined UEFA’s Technical Observer Panel.

In his new role, Postecoglou analyses the technical and tactical aspects of matches, alongside other former top coaches like Rafa Benitez, Roberto Martinez, and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

On Tuesday, he observed Arsenal’s 3-1 Champions League victory over Inter Milan, highlighting striker Gabriel Jesus’ sharp instincts in scoring both goals.

Postecoglou said of Jesus’ performance: “Both goals were instinctive… a demonstration of a goalscorer’s instincts as, while others are watching, he is anticipating an opportunity to score.”
