""I am so happy to be named Celtic Manager, it is a massive honour for myself and my family," Nancy said in a statement. "Before I say anything else I want to do one thing - I want to thank the great Martin O'Neill and Shaun Maloney for all they have done in recent weeks with the team. The job they have done has been fantastic.""
""These guys have given so much to the club across so many years and I know our fans, like me, all recognise the brilliant job they have done during this recent period. They have my total respect and my total gratitude. I hope to meet them both very soon and thank them personally. Now its up to me to carry on this great work and carry our great club forward and I can't wait to get going and become part of such a brilliant institution.""
Wilfried Nancy, 48, has been appointed Celtic manager on a two-and-a-half-year contract after leaving Major League Soccer side Columbus Crew. He arrived in the UK ahead of the move and will become the permanent successor to Brendan Rodgers, whose tenure ended in October, with Martin O'Neill set to finish his interim spell after tonight's Scottish Premiership match against Dundee. Nancy described the role as a massive honour for himself and his family and publicly thanked Martin O'Neill and Shaun Maloney for their recent work. He pledged to deliver a strong, exciting, attacking, winning team while respecting Celtic's history and values.
