Tottenham icon Robbie Keane has reportedly emerged as the front runner to become Celtic's next permanent manager.

It’s been a turbulent season for Celtic. Brendan Rodgers left last October, and after a short interim spell from Martin O’Neill, Wilfried Nancy was named as the successor.

Nancy proved to be a disastrous appointment, however, and O’Neill was once again called upon to take charge until the end of the season.

According to The Guardian, former Tottenham striker and current Ferencvaros manager Keane, 45, is the new frontrunner.

Keane has also been linked with a return to Spurs with the club struggling to remain in the Premier League.
