Tottenham Hotspur have confirmed Ange Postecoglou's backroom staff.
The former Celtic boss has landed Chris Davies as his No2 in North London - after trying to lure John Kennedy to Spurs.
Bizarrely, Davies was Brendan Rodgers former assistant at Celtic.
Alongside Davies, Postecoglou will also be assisted by Mile Jedinak and Rob Burch who join existing staff members Ryan Mason and Matt Wells at Tottenham.
Davies officially takes up the post of senior assistant coach, Australia legend Jedinak is an assistant coach alongside Mason and Wells in the same position.
Burch returns to Spurs in the role of first team goalkeeping coach.
The new coaching team will begin work when Postecoglou's contract officially begins on July 1.
