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 are hopeful they can secure Fraser Forster on a fresh loan deal for next season - according to a report. The Daily Mail claim the England international is set to have his Southampton future resolved in the next 48 hours as the Hoops eye a Parkhead return.
The keeper rediscovered his best form under Neil Lennon last season after a difficult 18 months at St Mary's where he was left on the outside looking in.
