Meanwhile, Chief Executive Michael Nicholson commented: “We have been aware of Wilfried and his quality of work for some time – he was our number one candidate when we began the process of appointing a new Manager and we are delighted that he as agreed to join the club.”
“I know he is hugely excited about this opportunity to be part of Celtic’s future. We will give Wilfried every support to face the challenges ahead, with our aim as always being to deliver the success for the club which our supporters deserve, this season and beyond.”
“I also want to thank Martin, Shaun, Mark Fotheringham and Stephen McManus for all they have done in recent weeks. They have shown such high levels of professionalism and commitment in supporting the club in a difficult moment and we will forever be grateful to them for the fantastic contributions they have all made.”
An exciting start for the new Celtic manager
Nancy’s first game in charge is on Sunday at Celtic Park against Hearts. The Frenchman will then have his first taste of European action next Thursday against Roma in the Europa League which is followed by the Premier Sports League Cup final against St Mirren at Hampden Park.
