Celtic Will Decide Iheanacho’s Future After Fitness Check, Says O’Neill

Interim manager Martin O’Neill confirms Celtic have yet to make a final decision on Nigerian striker Kelechi Iheanacho’s long-term future at the club. Iheanacho arrived on a free transfer last summer from Sevilla but endured an injury-hit spell at Celtic Park. Now back to full fitness, he came off the bench to score the winner in a 2-1 victory over Hibernian at Easter Road, bringing his Scottish Premiership tally to seven goals this season. O’Neill says the forward’s priority must be maintaining fitness and proving his consistency on the field. The club will evaluate his season-long contributions against his injury record before discussing any future contract plans.
