67 Hail Hail understands that Celtic have been long-term admirers of Lee Carsley.
The Hoops are looking for a new manager after Brendan Rodgers quit earlier in the week, with several names linked early doors.
A return to Celtic for Ange Postecoglou has been ruled out whereas Columbus Crew boss Wilfried Nancy refused to comment on the links.
Other names include Kieran McKenna, Robbie Keane and Craig Bellamy, but it seems that Carsley could also be in contention.
Lee Carsley is an option to become new Celtic manager
According to Chief Football Correspondent Graeme Bailey, Celtic could consider the possibility of appointing Carsley.
Bailey stated that Celtic have been impressed with Carsley’s work as England U21s manager, as well as his brief stint in charge of the senior national team.
Under his watch, the former Republic of Ireland international has won two European U21 Championships and helped to develop the likes of Cole Palmer and Noni Madueke.
67 Hail Hail understands that Carsley isn’t a frontrunner for the job, but someone that is under consideration.
