Former Tottenham manager Harry Redknapp has revealed that he isn’t interested in becoming the next permanent Celtic manager.

He says he has no interested in replacing interim manager Neil Lennon, as he is more focused in off-field activities like ‘pantomime’.

“I wouldn’t be in the running for a job like that, no chance” he told the Scottish Sun.

“I could do it, but they’ve got Neil Lennon and I’m too busy doing pantomime and stuff like that!”

To be fair, the chances of Harry Redknapp ever becoming the next Celtic manager seemed remote. He seems like he has retired from football management.

Days as front-line manager are over

It was interesting to see him see that he ‘could’ do the job. He must still have a high opinion of his managerial skills, even though his days as a front-line manager seem to be at an end.

As for who will be the next permanent boss, the wait goes on. Celtic have not confirmed or denied anything.

Neil Lennon will be interim manager until the end of the season, but the next boss will have to be revealed sooner rather than later.

One thing we do know though is that the next Celtic manager won’t be Harry Redknapp.
