When Martin O’Neill will return to Celtic dugout after press conference absence as Euro ‘aspiration’ named

Celtic assistant manager Shaun Maloney confirmed that Martin O'Neill will return to the dugout for their Europa League match against Celta Vigo. O'Neill missed the pre-match media conference due to personal reasons. Currently sitting without any points in the competition following defeats to Benfica and Ferencvaros, Celtic are aiming to secure their first Europa League points against the Spanish side.

Maloney noted that defender Auston Trusty will miss the match because of a personal issue. Additionally, Celtic supporters from the Green Brigade plan to boycott the match amid ongoing frustrations regarding the club's European readiness, though Maloney emphasized his respect for all supporters while urging unity across the fanbase.
