Wilfried Nancy, currently the head coach of Columbus Crew, is in line to become the manager of Celtic. As negotiations over his compensation progress, his appointment to the Glasgow club appears imminent. In tandem with this potential move, Nancy is eyeing a January signing of Wessam Abou Ali, a 26-year-old Palestinian striker.
Celtic’s Future Manager and Coaching Staff
Should Wilfried Nancy take the helm at Celtic, he plans to bring a robust coaching team. His proposed staff includes:
- Kwame Ampadu – an experienced coach from Exeter City.
- Max Chalier – first-team analyst.
- Jules Gueguen – fitness chief.
Additionally, Yoann Damet is a potential candidate to fill Nancy’s current role at Columbus Crew.
Celtic’s Managerial Search
The search for Celtic’s new manager has been active, especially after Brendan Rodgers was listed as a potential option for Leeds United, further complicating the managerial landscape. Daniel Farke, the current Leeds manager, is under pressure following a recent defeat.
Potential Transfer Targets
Wessam Abou Ali, who has caught Nancy’s attention, could join Celtic in January. His addition would align with Nancy’s strategy to enhance the team’s attacking options.
Upcoming Changes in Scottish Football
In addition to Celtic’s developments, the sporting director position at Rangers is under scrutiny. David Weir has emerged as the favorite despite his recent appointment at Strasbourg.
As shifts occur both on the pitch and in managerial roles, the upcoming weeks promise pivotal changes in Scottish football.
