O'Neill stays at Celtic after league & cup double

Martin O'Neill will continue as the manager of Celtic, having guided the club to a league and Scottish Cup double during his interim spells last season. The 74-year-old's return to Parkhead was confirmed after talks with major shareholder Dermot Desmond earlier this week.

O'Neill initially returned to Celtic in late October on a temporary basis after Brendan Rodgers left the club. He oversaw eight games during this first interim period. Following this, Wilfried Nancy was appointed, but the Frenchman departed after a difficult spell, with the team suffering six defeats and securing only two wins in eight matches.

In early January, O'Neill was back at the helm, appointed as Celtic boss for the remainder of the season. He successfully led the team to clinch the league title on the final day of the campaign, defeating Hearts 3-1. Two weeks later, he secured his ninth trophy as Celtic manager with a 3-1 victory over Dunfermline Athletic in the Scottish Cup final.

Celtic has yet to make an official announcement regarding O'Neill's continued tenure.
