Speaking after the Scottish Cup final, Kelechi Iheanacho avoided confirming whether he will remain at Celtic next season.
The Nigeria international came off the bench to score once again as the Hoops secured a 3-1 victory over Dunfermline Athletic to lift the Scottish Cup, just a week after clinching the Premiership title.
After falling out of favour at Sevilla, the 2013 Fifa U17 World Cup Golden Ball winner joined Celtic on a free transfer last September, signing a one-year deal with the club holding the option to extend his stay for the 2026–27 season.
Despite missing a large part of the campaign due to a hamstring injury, Iheanacho played an important role in Celtic's Premiership-winning season, delivering several crucial goals from the bench.
When asked about his future at Celtic, Iheanacho refused to give a definitive answer.
"I don't know, we will wait and see," he told BBC Scotland.
Despite the uncertainty surrounding his future, the former Leicester City forward expressed his delight after helping Celtic secure another major honour.
"It feels really good to win my first Scottish Cup. It was tough to get here but we won the trophy.
"It's been a crazy season. It's one we can remember for all our lives but we got there in the end so we're happy," Iheanacho concluded.
In twenty four appearances for Celtic, Iheanacho scored nine goals and registered one assist, while logging 890 minutes.
