Martin O'Neill appointed Celtic manager ahead of 2026 season
Martin O'Neill has been announced as Celtic's new manager after two interim spells in the 2025-26 season, during which he guided the club to two league titles. The Scottish side dismissed Brendan Rodgers and later Wilfried Nancy, prompting a swift search for a permanent boss.
O'Neill's interim success, including a league championship, convinced the board to offer him a long‑term contract. The deal runs through the 2026 campaign with a focus on securing European competition.
Fans are optimistic that his experience and tactical acumen will restore Celtic's dominance.
