Ex-Celtic boss Ange Postecoglou seals first deal as new manager of Tottenham – and sells his stunning luxury home
EX-CELTIC boss Ange Postecoglou has bagged his first home win since quitting Parkhead by selling his luxury Australian home.
The £1.8m Tuscan villa had only been made available on the transfer market last month.
But a wealthy buyer has already snapped up the swanky property in a swish Melbourne suburb.
Postecoglou, 57, had kept the keys to the massive mansion during his spell in Glasgow but it emerged he was offloading it three weeks ago.
Down Under estate agents Kay and Burton have now listed the property as sold on their website but no further details have been released.
The pad boasts access to an indoor swimming pool and spa as well as a powder room, interior courtyard and outdoor eating areas.
It also has an upstairs study, two large en-suite bedrooms and a walk-in wardrobe which all open out onto a stunning wraparound balcony overlooking the garden’s pond.
Kay and Burton said: “Unparalleled in luxury and quality, this opulent villa also features a powder room, laundry, ducted heating and cooling, security alarm, secure video intercom, double garage and access to Villaggio’s indoor swimming pool, spa and gym.
“Nestled amidst established gardens by renowned landscape designer Paul Bangay, the magnificent two-storey residence benefits from its own street frontage and has been architect-designed to create the feel of a Tuscan villa while also maximising light, style and resort-style tranquillity.
“Stepping into the home through the ornate loggia, the soaring ceilings, gorgeous American Oak parquetry flooring and sandstone features hint at the meticulous attention to detail and refined European interiors within.”
Postecoglou has agreed a four-year deal with north London side Tottenham Hotspur.
The gruff gaffer shattered Hoops’ fans hopes he would stay in Glasgow despite winning a domestic treble.
Spurs chairman Daniel Levy said: “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.
“We are excited to have Ange join us as we prepare for the season ahead.”
He has also targeted Celtic No2 John Kennedy for his move and has been linked with a £20m bid for Kyogo Furuhashi.
