Robbie Keane has broken his silence on the recent links to the Celtic job.
Keane reportedly applied for the Celtic job and is one of the many managers who has been tipped to replace Brendan Rodgers at Parkhead.
The Republic of Ireland’s all-time leading goalscorer has also been linked with Wolverhampton Wanderers, but he still remains in charge of Hungarian giants Ferencvaros.
During his most recent press conference, the forward was asked about the links to the job, and how he feels.

Robbie Keane happy at Ferencvaros
Celtic are an important part of Keane’s life, according to the man himself.
Dermot Desmond personally funded Keane’s move to the Hoops and the chance to reunite, but this time as a manager, is one that flatters the Ferencvaros boss despite being happy in his current role.
He said: “I can’t do anything about the speculation, but maybe it means I’m doing my job well here and that’s the most important thing.
“I’m happy here. I don’t really want to react to every rumour, but I played football for many years and whatever club I played for, everyone would always talk about where I would go next.
“I focus on one thing and that’s Ferencvaros.”
Robbie Keane not the favourite among Celtic fans
Ask most Celtic fans who they want as their new manager and Keane won’t even get a sniff.
Most Hoops supporters want Kjetil Knutsen to take the reins while Columbus Crew boss Wilfried Nancy also seems like a popular suggestion.
Others like Kieran McKenna are also high on the list but time will tell who lands the role.
