'I am a leader, not a boss' - Celtic's Nancy
""My style of play is about the way I live," he explained. "I like to be proactive in my life, I like to discover things. I like to try things. Football is about relations between players. We don't play tennis, we don't play golf. We need, I call it non-verbal communication. We need to run together to score goals, we need to run together to defend the goal. We want to take care of the ball.""
"Nancy worked with Montreal's academy, eventually moving up to assistant and then head coach there before becoming Columbus Crew head coach. He won the Canadian Championship with Montreal and the MLS Cup and Leagues Cup with Columbus Crew. He says long-term assistant Kwame Ampadu will "challenge" and "support" Celtic's players and added: "He's wise, for me this is so important.""
Wilfried Nancy has been appointed Celtic manager on a contract running until the summer of 2028 following Brendan Rodgers' resignation. Nancy will take charge for the first time at home to league leaders Hearts and described himself as a leader focused on creating a strong environment for players to express themselves. He outlined a proactive, possession-oriented style that relies on collective movement, non-verbal communication, resilience and manipulating opponents to create attacking speed. Nancy highlighted long-term assistant Kwame Ampadu as a wise figure who will challenge and support players. Nancy won domestic and continental honours with Montreal and Columbus Crew.
