Some concrete stuff there by The Sun as usual. The Examiner reckon he's Championship bound.
Could Burnley be weighing up a shock move?

His stated goal was to stay in MLS but there were no contract offers from any of the twenty-two clubs.
I'm sure any MLS team with a Designated Player spot still available would be happy to sign Keane. The problem is money. He was on good wages at Galaxy and probably doesn't want to take a pay cut unless absolutely necessary.
Would be cool to watch him with a Prem/Championship team for last hurrah though, wouldn't it?
Burnley would be really interesting but I'd hate see him go there if his legs weren't able for the speed of the PL. The Sunderland link has disaster written all over it though.
Think he'll end up in the Championship though. Clubs are probably trying to get the money together, be it from sponsors or internally.
Was selfishly hoping he'd sign for the Vancouver Whitecaps -- there's a bit of a connection personally -- Robbie was best man at Carl Robinson (Whitecaps manager)'s wedding.
Don't think the $$$ is there though.
Robbie is training with Shamrock Rovers at the minute (not with an eye on a move to Tallaght, but to maintain his fitness levels): http://www.independent.ie/sport/socc...-35511940.html

Forget about the performance or entertainment. It's only the result that matters.
been a while since robbie has been linked to a club. his last action was the oman game back in august, right?
Probably waiting for his dream club to come in for him.
Would have made sense for him to sign for Shamrock Rovers on a short term deal while he was training there. Will anyone take a gamble on him after a year out of football now?

A legend signing for Shamrock Rovers is the football equivalent of his name being carved (slowly/rapidly) on the career gravestone.
It's the cue for the coffin maker to make the preparations.

The USA was a very successful adventure for Robbie where he gained a lot of respect and honours, Tallaght is a retirement home where retirees, Duff and McPhail ended their days, crocked.
In Tallaght, we look after our elders.
He sat courtside and met Kobe Bryant. He grinded on David Beckham in a bar as you can read about if you scroll back here several years.
RK did a lot for MLS and for fans of the sport in the US. He always made himself available for press and was a good ambassador for soccer in general. Bruce Arena has massively wonderful things to say about him. He was a very charitable person in LA vis a vis trying to introduce soccer into the less fortunate LA communities. Incidentally Bruce said today that the US can start thinking about winning the WC in 2026.
High praise for Robbie from Dimitar Berbatov on 'Goals on Sunday' this morning: https://www.balls.ie/football/dimita...e-keane-363237
