As a result, it is now up to the club to provide him the right players in order to make things work, or accept that they have made the wrong appointment altogether.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-1\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"5a\">Nancy has lost his first two games in charge. As a result, this Sunday&#8217;s Scottish League Cup final could already be a make-or-break contest for the manager.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-2\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"5d\">That might sound dramatic for someone who will take charge of his third game as Celtic manager. But once fans give up on you in Glasgow, there is only one possible outcome. Just ask the decision makers at Ibrox, who have to sack managers pretty much every season and recently showed Russell Martin the exit door after just 123 days.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-3\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"5g\">If things are to work for Nancy, he needs to be backed in the winter window based on the players he needs. That includes wing-backs, as he seems keen to play a three at the back formation.<\/p>\n<p>Celtic tipped to sign free agent Spain international to solve problem<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-5\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"5m\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.67hailhail.com\/opinion\/three-wing-back-options-that-could-immediately-improve-wilfried-nancys-new-look-celtic\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">67 Hail Hail<\/a> recently put out a list of wing-back options that could immediately improve Nancy\u2019s new-look Celtic. Sergio Reguilon&#8217;s name was on that listicle.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-6\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"5p\">Reguilon is without a club at the moment, having left Tottenham Hotspur in the summer. He is still just 28 years of age though and has the pedigree to shine at a club like Celtic.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-7\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"5s\">Over the years, Reguilon has played for clubs like Real Madrid, Manchester United, Tottenham Hotspur, Sevilla and Atletico Madrid. He has also represented Spain at the international level. How many other players can say that?<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-8\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"5v\">Clearly, Reguilon has quality. It just has not worked out for him in recent years. Celtic would present him with a fresh start at a time when there does not seem to be a lot of interest in his signature even though he is a free agent.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Wilfried Nancy has come in as the new Celtic manager and clearly has his own ideas about how&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":315717,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[33],"tags":[218,101,56,54,55],"class_list":{"0":"post-315716","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-football","8":"tag-football","9":"tag-sports","10":"tag-uk","11":"tag-united-kingdom","12":"tag-unitedkingdom"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/315716","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=315716"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/315716\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/315717"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=315716"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=315716"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=315716"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
