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 won the trophy for the sixth time in seven years having also beat Rangers in the 2019 final to lift the trophy under Neil Lennon.But a curious detail that has been overlooked amid all the fallout was the omission of the traditional cup final blurb on the front of Rangers' shirts.
Celtic and the match officials both had the team names in the centre of their jerseys, along with the date and the competition, while the same was on display in the EFL Cup final with both Manchester United and Newcastle showing the details on their chest.
