Brendan Rodgers has stepped down as Celtic manager, with the club confirming his departure on Monday following a disappointing opening to the season for the Scottish champions.
Celtic announced that former manager Martin ONeill along with ex-player Shaun Maloney will oversee first-team duties on a temporary basis while the search for a long-term replacement gets underway.
Rodgers return to Glasgow has come to an abrupt end after Sundays 3-1 loss to Hearts, a result that left Celtic eight points behind the Edinburgh club in the Premiership standings.
