Martin O’Neill has jokingly revealed what his first plans will be once his time as Celtic’s interim manager comes to an end.
Despite 67 Hail Hail understanding that O’Neill would be willing to stay until the end of the season, the Northern Irishman has always stressed that this move is a short-term one.
Plenty of names have been linked to the job, including former Hoops midfielder Efrain Juarez.
As it stands, Kjetil Knutsen is supporters’ number one choice and there are hopes that any appointment can be made during the international break.
For O’Neill, it hasn’t encouraged him to return to the world of management on a full-time basis and he has only one thing on his mind when his stint is over.
Martin O’Neill looking forward to drinking expensive coffee again
O’Neill had to return to London to retrieve his passport before heading to Denmark during the week and he will return to England’s capital after his work at Celtic is done.
Asked about his plans, the 73-year-old joked that he would be heading back to drink some ‘expensive’ coffee.
“I’ll go back to drinking coffee, which is rather expensive in London,” he said.
“That’s what I would do and think to myself did that really happen?
“But genuinely, if the board appoint someone on Monday that’s absolutely fine, it will have been a really strange fortnight.”
