Wilfried Nancy: Celtic close to appointing Columbus Crew head coach as new manager

After playing spells in his homeland, including with Toulon, Nancy moved into coaching in Canada.

Following Thierry Henry’s resignation as head coach in 2021, Nancy took over at CF Montreal and led them to the Canadian Championship later that year.

A move to Crew followed in 2022 and Nancy led the Ohio side to the MLS Cup in 2023 and the Leagues Cup, a competition between Mexican and United States sides, last year – when he was also named MLS coach of the year.

However, this year they finished seventh in Eastern Conference and 12th overall.

In all, he has overseen 215 games in North America and a move to Celtic would be his first managerial role in Europe.
