Martin O’Neill says he is not returning to Celtic with a view to taking over permanently as manager.
The former Celtic boss has been parachuted in as interim after Brendan Rodgers’ surprise resignation on Monday night.
“This is short term,” O’Neill told TalkSport.
“Celtic are stunned at the news that Brendan left, and as a consequence they are obviously seeking a permanent manager, and this is a short-term fit.
“Whether it is a fix or not is another thing”
Asked if interim means interim, Rodgers added: “Yes, interim does mean that. It’s as simple as that.
“I would assume Celtic are looking for a young coach, who has a proven ability, to come in now and pull the club forward from their current position.
“That’s how I would view it and as a Celtic fan, that’s how I would absolutely see it.”
