Neil Francis Lennon (born 25 June 1971) is a Northern Irish football coach and former player who is the manager of Scottish Premiership club Celtic. During his playing career he represented English clubs Manchester City, Crewe Alexandra and Leicester City.
Lennon moved to Scottish club Celtic in 2000, where he made over 200 appearances and was appointed captain in 2005. Before retiring as a player, he returned to England and played for Nottingham Forest and Wycombe Wanderers. Lennon made 40 appearances for Northern Ireland in nine years, scoring two goals. Lennon was appointed manager of Celtic in March 2010, initially in a caretaker capacity after the departure of Tony Mowbray.
Celtic for a crucial spell are beginning to clear up for a relieved Neil Lennon. The Irishman has recently welcomed back the likes of Odsonne Edouard and Nir Bitton to his team while further good news lies in store for Lennon.
Christopher Jullien is also on his way back, although Thursday night’s clash with Sparta Prague comes too early for the French centre-back.Mikey Johnston – who has been out since January – is getting closer to a return as is Kris Ajer.
It means James Forrest remains Celtic’s only long-term absentee, with the winger out until the new year. By then Lennon will hope to still be in Europe and a victory over Sparta in matchday three of the Europa League will help with that goal.
