Daniel Arzani links up with ex-Celtic hero after Scotland return links

Celtic flop Daniel Arzani has joined Ferencvaros. 

The 26-year-old, who spent an injury-ravaged year and a half at Parkhead, was linked with a move to Heart of Midlothian earlier this summer. 

A switch to Tynecastle potentially beckoned for Arzani, with Hearts viewing him as an option to bolster their wide areas.

The Aussie has instead opted to sign for Hungarian champions Ferencvaros, who are managed by ex-Celtic hero Robbie Keane. 

Keane spent half a season on loan in Glasgow's east end, scoring 16 goals and providing three assists in 19 appearances. 

He was appointed boss of Ferencvaros at the beginning of this year and soon guided them to Hungarian top-flight glory last season. 

Arzani, his latest summer signing, played 29 times for Melbourne Victory last term, setting up six goals and netting three. 

In other news, Ange Postecoglou is reportedly being lined up for a shock return to management in Saudi Arabia. 

The ex-Celtic boss was sacked by Tottenham Hotspur last week despite leading the North London club to Europa League glory. 

Now, he is being 'lined up' to replace highly-rated young German coach Matthias Jaissle at Saudi Pro League outfit Al Ahli, claims The Telegraph

The former Parkhead gaffer already has vast experience of managing in Asia, having led Yokohama F. Marinos to the J. League title and Australia to Asian Cup glory.
