What happened. Martin O'Neill underwent a minor procedure in hospital this week and was discharged on Thursday, but assistant manager Shaun Maloney says there is no timeline for his return to the dugout.

• O'Neill was in good form after the procedure, per Maloney.
• He will decide if he manages Sunday's trip to Kilmarnock.
• Maloney says it would be 'strange' to take charge if needed.

“It was really positive. He was in good form - loads better than he was Monday, Tuesday.”

— Shaun Maloney

Celtic's next match is away to Kilmarnock on Sunday, with O'Neill's availability uncertain.
