After spending two different stints in the Parkhead dugout, the 52-year-old won 10 trophies; yet, he is eager to move on after leaving Omonia Nicosia in 2022.
Lennon was a candidate for the open Republic of Ireland post, but he was told last month that he would not be taking Stephen Kenny’s place as the leader of the Boys in Green.
As a pundit for many media, the Lurgan native is invariably present throughout Celtic matchday coverage, contributing a variety of thought-provoking perspectives gleaned from his time as manager of the Bhoys.
In terms of experience, accomplishments in the game, and what I have done and learned as a manager, he continued, “I feel, at 52, that my best years are ahead of me as a football manager and a coach.”I do believe that there is a false impression of who I am. I’ve won championships, triple crowns, and played in the Champions League.I even traveled overseas, brought that squad into the Europa League, and won a trophy. As a manager and player, I have four Scottish Cup victories under my belt. I have actual experience. At a very young age, I was hired by Celtic. I still have a lot of energy, even though people believe I’m getting older—that was around fifteen years ago.Given how his second stint at Parkhead ended, Lennon’s supporters will likely have mixed feelings toward him; nonetheless, he appears committed to proving his naysayers wrong in his upcoming role.In any case, if he were to make a spectacular comeback to Scottish football soon, it would be intriguing.
