Nancy Aims to Restore Celtic Faith with Scottish League Cup Final Win

Wilfried Nancy aims to secure his first win and trophy as Celtic manager after two defeats; St Mirren enter confident following a recent league victory, officials said.

  • At Hampden Park on Sunday, Celtic Football Club face St Mirren Football Club in the Premier Sports Cup final, with Wilfried Nancy, Celtic head coach, seeking his first win and trophy after a 3-0 loss to Roma.
  • The former Columbus Crew boss has already attracted criticism for tactical changes including a 3-4-3 formation, but Nancy said winning trophies takes priority over convincing sceptical fans.
  • Quoting Wilfried Nancy, `I watched the game...find resources to bounce back` as he stresses belief in his players and warns St Mirren have been aggressive and well organised.
  • A cup victory would offer immediate validation for Nancy's approach and a morale boost for the squad, with Wilfried Nancy saying Celtic players deserve the win after off-field uncertainty.
  • Injury doubts and late fitness calls mean selection will be unresolved until shortly before kickoff, with a veteran winger training earlier this week and a Tunisia call-up available under a new FIFA rule.
