Johnny Hayes kehrt wohl zu Celtic zurĂŒckSunSport understands Hayes will now return to Celtic in a role working with younger players.
Hayes revealed towards the end of the campaign that he'd be retiring as a player.
The Republic of Ireland international was visibly emotional after his final game as he called it quits to focus on a coaching career.
Aberdeen had offered Hayes the chance to take on a 'senior full-time position' within the club's youth academy,
But the Pittodrie outfit have confirmed he's left to 'pursue senior coaching opportunities at professional level elsewhere.'
That opportunity looks to be leading Hayes back to Celtic, where he spent three years as a player between 2017 and 2020.
He'll return to the Hoops to take a key role working with younger players.
Celtic are looking to replace under-18 manager Stuart McLaren who left at the end of last year.
