Ex-Celtic star Nicholas urges Postecoglou to reject Leicester

Former Celtic star Charlie Nicholas has urged Ange Postecoglou to resist a move to Leicester City.

Postecoglou is being linked with Brendan Rodgers' job at the Foxes.

But writing in his Scottish Daily Express column, Nicholas said: "Ange Postecoglou won't be interested in the job at Leicester City if it becomes available - but he will, eventually, leave Celtic for a top European club. The English Premier League is attractive but there are times to make that move and Steven Gerrard made the wrong choice last term to go to Aston Villa.

"Ange, above, won't make that mistake as he can see what happens down south and will wait until the right opportunity comes along. He seems to be enjoying where he is and wants to achieve more at Celtic.

"But, if he continues to bring success, it will lead to offers and I get the feeling he'd rather work on the continent than in England. Brendan Rodgers couldn't wait to leave Celtic after a fall-out with Peter Lawwell. Now he's under pressure and Leicester don't look like a great option at present."
