Neil Lennon: Celtic manager insists ‘club will come first’ and is not thinking about potential permanent appointment
Neil Lennon has assured Celtic fans ‘the club comes first’ after taking over as manager following the sudden departure of Brendan Rodgers to Leicester.Lennon, 47, spent four years at Celtic Park between 2010-14 and will take the reigns immediately as his side travel to face Hearts on Wednesday evening – 24 hours after Rodgers left to take charge of the Foxes.3

Lennon has taken over as Celtic boss following Rodgers’ departure

Celtic fans are in a state of shock over Rodgers leaving with a title still to be won but Lennon has told the players they cannot get distracted.Lennon – who has been installed until the end of the season – told Celtic TV: “It’s difficult circumstances obviously, there is a chasm to fill with Brendan leaving, who has done a remarkable job. But I’m here for the club.“The club comes first, and obviously the players, and I want to bring as much success here in my time as I possibly can.”The Northern Irishman could not have asked for a much more difficult first few days back in the role he vacated in 2014.3

Rodgers was in the stands for Leicester’s defeat of Brighton

After the trip to Tynecastle, where he was struck with a coin on his last visit as Hibernian head coach, he returns to Easter Road on Saturday for a Scottish Cup quarter-final against the club he left a month ago.Lennon said: “Tough games but this is the business end of the season and looking at the mentality of the players, they look really focused.“Whether this disrupts them a little bit, I have got to manage that for them, and make sure they stay fully focused.“It’s not about me coming back, it’s not about Brendan leaving, it’s about Celtic winning the league and hopefully winning another cup as well.” Lennon admits former team-mate John Kennedy, who has stepped up from first-team coach to assistant manager, will be vital for continuity.“The players have been absolutely exceptional over the last two-and-a-half, three years and all I want to do is carry that on,” he said.“It’s not broken, so I’m not coming in to revolutionise anything.3

Lennon spent four years at Celtic from 2010-14

“I’m going to lean on John Kennedy a lot, he knows how it works, he knows the system, the routine and I’ll be tapping into that a lot.“I don’t want this disrupting the flow. The players know what’s at stake, eyes on the prize, and I’m just here to help them along with that.”Lennon will see out the remainder of the season in the Celtic Park dugout before departing, but he has quickly been installed as one of the favourites to become the club’s permanent manager this summer.However, a potential appointment has not crossed Lennon’s mind.“It’s not up to me,” he added. “I’m not even thinking about that, the club comes first. It’s about the club and the players.“This is a club decision and come the summer it will be another club decision, what the board think is best for the club going forward.”
