The news has sparked discussions among football supporters, particularly those who followed Iheanacho’s previous spell at Celtic and appreciated his contributions to the team.
Under the leadership of experienced manager Martin O’Neill, Celtic continue to look towards strengthening their football project and building a team capable of competing at the highest level.
Iheanacho is a familiar name at Celtic Park. The Nigerian forward joined the club in September 2025, bringing valuable experience from his previous spells with Manchester City, Leicester City and Sevilla.
His experience, understanding of the game and connection with the club could make him an interesting figure in any future role.
However, the claim that Celtic have officially appointed him to a senior coaching position has not been confirmed by the club.
