O'Neill 'surprised' and 'disappointed' by Schmeichel surgery announcement

Celtic manager Martin O'Neill was surprised to hear of Kasper Schmeichel's on-air announcement declaring his career might be over.

O'Neill had stated last Friday that the goalkeeper was closing in on a return to fitness but Schmeichel announced live on CBS's Champions League coverage on Wednesday that he faced double shoulder surgery and up to a year of rehabilitation.
