All signs are now pointing firmly towards Wilfried Nancy as next Celtic manager with the 48 year old deemed the odds-on favourite to take on the role. Currently Head Coach of Columbus Crew in the MLS, the emergence of his name has led to a scramble among fans to get as much info as possible on the man who may replace Brendan Rodgers in the hot seat. In shades of Ange Postecoglue’s appointment, and Ronny Deila’s before that, Nancy isn’t widely known on these shores and so we spoke to someone in the know to get the lowdown on the highly rated Frenchman. Dublin-born John O’Rourke has been working in US Soccer for over 25 years and holds an A License from the United States Soccer Federation. Just two weeks ago John was in attendance as Nancy put on a training session for academy players at Philadelphia Union before later making a presentation and so is well placed to give his thoughts on his suitability. In this wide ranging discussion we look at Nancy’s coaching philosophy, his own career ambitions, and if he’s potentially the right man to lead Celtic forward. ========================================== 🔔 Want even more from The Celtic Exchange?
