New Hibernian head coach Nick Montgomery insists Ange Postecoglou’s success at Celtic has helped create a pathway for coaches to move to the UK from Australia.
The former Scotland Under-21 international was unveiled yesterday as Lee Johnson’s successor at Easter Road on a three-year deal after leaving A-League champions Central Coast Mariners.
And the 41-year-old is sure Australian football can provide the platform for him to do well in Scotland, just like Postecoglou did at Parkhead.
The ex-Celtic boss’ arrival two years ago was greeted with much scepticism as he had only coached Down Under and in Japan.
