Celtic legend Scott Brown has been asked the question of whether he would like to become the Bhoys’ manager one day. 

Brown took up his first job in management at the beginning of the season as he took over the hotseat at Fleetwood Town.

The League One outfit are currently sitting in 17th place under the 37-year-old’s guidance, after his short spell in Aberdeen as Stephen Glass’ right-hand man.

It’s still very early days in terms of Brown’s managerial career, but he was bound to be asked the question about returning to Celtic Park one day.

And the Hoops icon says he needs to focus on delivering at Fleetwood before considering any further steps in his career.

Brown answers question over Celtic manager ambitions

Speaking on The Daily Record’s Off The Record, Brown had the question put straight to him about his desire to manage Celtic in the future.

David McCarthy, Chief Sports Feature Writer at the Record, asked: “I know you’re in your first job and you’re not that long in your first job. But at some point in the future, would managing Celtic be an ambition? I’ve got to ask you.”

Brown laughed at the question, before responding: “[I’ve got] loads of ambitions, loads of ambitions. But I need to do a good job here before I do anything else.

“I’m still a young manager, I need to make sure that I win some games here or I won’t be managing anyone.”

While Fleetwood’s final status in League One this season is far from confirmed, Brown made history at the club in the FA Cup last week. 

The former Bhoys captain led the Fishermen to their first ever appearance in the FA Cup fifth round with a win over Sheffield Wednesday. Brown had seen off Championship outfit Queens Park Rangers in the previous round too.

Brown landing the Celtic job seems a long way off considering he’s only just started his managerial career.

But judging from the smile on his face after he was asked the question, he would probably love to return to Parkhead as manager one day. Why wouldn’t he?
