Celtic Manager Martin O'Neill Hospitalized After Minor Surgery

Celtic Football Club has confirmed that manager Martin O'Neill, aged 74, is currently hospitalized after undergoing a minor surgical procedure. The club anticipates that he will be discharged within the next couple of days.

O'Neill was present in the dugout on Monday when Celtic secured a 1-0 victory against Dundee in their Scottish Premiership opener. While specific details about the procedure have not been disclosed, the club expressed gratitude for the support from fans and requested privacy for O'Neill and his family during this time.

O'Neill was appointed as the permanent manager this summer after leading Celtic to a Premiership and Scottish Cup double last season. The team is scheduled to play against Kilmarnock on Sunday.
