Hoops skipper would welcome Roy move
Celtic captain Neil Lennon would love to join forces with Roy Keane at Parkhead – but warned his fellow Irishman that he would not give up his place in the team without a fight.
Keane’s next destination is odds-on to be Celtic, with Monday’s perceived withdrawal from the race by Italian sides Juventus and AS Roma held to strengthen the Scottish side’s position.
It remains far from certain that he will make the move to Parkhead, however, with the question of remuneration, as well as the extent to which Bhoys boss Gordon Strachan would want to sign him, seen as stumbling-blocks at the present juncture.
Lennon – two month’s Keane’s senior – would love to welcome the Cork man to Celtic Park, even if it makes his position in the side under threat.
He said: “If Roy does come, it will be great. He’s an unbelievable player. Anyone who wants my place will have to play really well to make me sit on the bench every week. If he doesn’t come, we carry on regardless.”
