Reports circulating online claiming that Celtic F.C. head coach Martin O’Neill has been “sacked indefinitely” are false.

As of now, there has been no official announcement from Celtic F.C. confirming that O’Neill has been dismissed. In fact, he remains the club’s manager after being appointed on a permanent basis in June 2026 following a successful campaign in which he guided the Hoops to domestic silverware.
Recent reports indicate that O’Neill briefly stepped away from matchday duties because of a minor medical procedure, with assistant manager Shaun Maloney temporarily taking charge while he recovered. He has since confirmed that he is recovering well, and there has been no indication from the club that his position is under threat.
Supporters are therefore urged to treat sensational social media posts with caution and rely on official club communications for accurate information.
