Postecoglou favourite for Celtic job | OneFootball

Ange Postecoglou is the favourite to become the next Celtic manager following the resignation of Brendan Rodgers.

Former manager Martin O'Neill will take charge of the team on a temporary basis as the hunt for a new permanent head coach begins.

According to the bookies, another former manager could be in line for the job with Ange Postecoglou the odds-on favourite with one company, bet365, setting odds at 15/8.

After a disastrous short stint at Nottingham Forest in which Postecoglou was never able to earn a win, the Europa League winner would be welcome back at Celtic Park.

However, the Australian isn't the only manager in the running. Kieran McKenna has odds of 2/1 while Shaun Maloney, who will be assisting O'Neill is 8/1. The veteran manager has 9/1 odds on taking the job on a permanent basis.

Elsewhere, one-time Celtic player Robbie Keane has 8/1 followed by two Norwegian managers Kjetil Knutsen and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer with 10/1 and 16/1 respectively.

Of course, there are far more unlikely candidates with Neil Lennon given 20/1 odds while Crystal Palace's Oliver Glasner has odds of 50/1.
