Martin O\u2019Neill has revealed he will likely be back in the Celtic dug-out for Wednesday\u2019s Scottish Premiership clash against Dundee.<\/p>\n
It comes after the Irishman revealed the Parkhead side\u2019s move for Wilfried Nancy has been delayed due to paperwork.<\/p>\n
O\u2019Neill<\/a> is in charge of the Hoops for their league clash against Hibs at Easter Road in what was thought to be his last game.<\/p>\n The 73-year-old himself believed the game in Leith would be his farewell but spoke to Sky Sports before the game.<\/p>\n And O\u2019Neill revealed how there are \u201cprocesses\u201d that are taking longer than expected which means Nancy will have to wait for his big unveiling.<\/p>\n That could mean the Frenchman is thrown into a massive top table of the table clash against Hearts on December 7 for his first game in charge.<\/p>\n O’Neill said: “Right, I thought it was my last game, then I got a call, yesterday, to say there is processes still ongoing and there is a still a really decent chance I will be here for Wednesday.
