Martin O'Neill, Celtic's interim manager, has confirmed that Wilfried Nancy will be appointed as the new manager of the club this week. The 73-year-old O'Neill will manage Celtic for one final game before handing over to Nancy, who will take charge on Wednesday's league match against Dundee.
O'Neill expressed his excitement about Nancy taking over, saying he was "delighted" that he had been given the opportunity to work with him. He also praised the confidence of Nancy, describing it as a "nice one for him [against Hearts], a nice introduction". O'Neill stated that he will be observing Nancy's performance from Wednesday and said "it is entirely up to him [Nancy]".
O'Neill has led Celtic since Brendan Rodgers resigned over a month ago, guiding them to six of seven matches, narrowing the gap at the top of the Scottish Premiership.
