ONeill to remain Celtic interim boss as permanent manager search continues - Soccer News
"First of all, we want the players coming back from international matches unscathed, which is the most important thing for us now that we've got a few injuries to contend with. So whatever sort of squad we had for the Kilmarnock game, I wouldn't mind having roughly the same again, but we can only deal with what we have and what we want to do, and we just want to play as strongly as we possibly can. But let's see what the next couple of days bring."
"As #CelticFC continue with the process to appoint our next permanent manager, we can confirm that Martin O'Neill and Shaun Maloney will continue to manage first-team matters on an interim basis, until this process is complete. Read More - Celtic Football Club (@CelticFC) November 17, 2025"
"If there's not an announcement now in the next few days, then I'm happy to still be here for the weekend game against St. Mirren,"
Brendan Rodgers resigned last month and Martin O'Neill has taken interim charge alongside Shaun Maloney while the club pursues a permanent appointment. O'Neill has overseen four matches in all competitions, losing once in the Europa League to Midtjylland, winning both league games and guiding the team to the Scottish League Cup final. Columbus Crew's Wilfried Nancy is currently the favourite and reports suggest he has started talks with the club, though no official confirmation has been made. O'Neill said he is prepared to lead the team for the weekend meeting with St. Mirren and emphasised the priority of players returning from internationals unscathed amid injury concerns. Celtic sit second in the Premiership, seven points behind Hearts with a game in hand.
