Celtic boss Ange Postecoglou has assured fans he's not pushing for the Leeds United job.

After assistant manager John Kennedy joked that Postecoglou had been 'tied to a chair' amid his links with the Leeds top job, the Celtic boss has now has hid say on the matter.

"Bizarre. Anyone that's seen the size of John [Kennedy], we don't need security. Whatever he wants I'll pretty much do," Postecoglou said in reply to Kennedy's comments.

"I'm focused on what we're doing here and I just thought it was a good week for us to focus on training. John's a very, very capable guy and handles the media well and I thought I'd have a break from everyone and everyone can have a break from me.

"I don't think fans need a message from me. What the fans need is me to keep making sure that our football club represents them the right way. That's my responsibility. If you've got a player that's getting a lot of attention the first thing you're going to say to him is 'just keep playing well, don't worry about anything else.'

"I'm old enough now to know that football changes very quickly. I'm pretty blessed to be in the position I am, working for a special football club. I'm never going to lose sight of that, my main responsibility is making sure I prepare the team for a game."
