Celtic manager Martin O’Neill, 74, is currently in hospital after the club announced he has undergone a “small procedure” following a health scare. Reports across outlets state the update comes as Celtic continues its current season under O’Neill, who has been in charge for the past two years. Sources note he previously took charge after Brendan Rodgers and later Wilfried Nancy were sacked, twice responding to calls to manage the team.
While the club confirms the procedure has taken place, details of the medical issue are not specified in the available reports. The Daily Record says O’Neill is expected to be discharged later this week, though it remains unclear whether he will be able to take his place in the dugout for an upcoming match on Sunday. The Irish Mirror similarly describes the situation as a minor procedure and frames it as a health-related update for fans, without providing further clinical information.
Overall, the reporting focuses on O’Neill’s hospital stay, the nature of the procedure being described as small, and uncertainty around his short-term availability.
