Neil Lennon Set For Rapid Exit After Just Three Months

Neil Lennon is reportedly on the brink of being sacked as manager of Rapid Bucharest after a mere three months in charge. Prominent Romanian journalist Emanuel Roșu has revealed that the club is preparing to part ways with the former Celtic boss, who was appointed in May.

Lennon’s tenure has been marked by a disappointing run of results, failing to win any of his six league Games in charge.

This difficult period has been compounded by personal tragedy, as Lennon recently lost his mother, an event that undoubtedly impacted his focus and morale.

Despite his combative stance with the Romanian media, the results on the pitch have not helped his cause. It appears that the fit between Lennon and Rapid was never quite right, with resistance to his appointment evident from the start.

Lennon’s time at the Romanian club seems set to end prematurely, cutting short the two-year deal he initially signed. With the lack of victories and ongoing media scrutiny, it seems both the club and the manager might be ready to move on.

Former Celtic goalkeeper Benjamin Siegrist is not long in the door at Rapid after Neil personally signed him for the club. Not the ideal start for the stopper.
