Betting SUSPENDED for Roy Keane to take over at Celtic as former Republic of Ireland mentor and Hoops boss Martin O'Neill hails his 'strong character' as perfect for the position

Betfair have suspended betting for former Manchester United midfielder Roy Keane to take over as manager of Celtic.

The Scottish giants are on the lookout for a new permanent boss after parting ways with Neil Lennon in February, following a sustained miserable run of form.

Celtic have missed out on a historic tenth consecutive title after Steven Gerrard's Rangers ran away with the division and are still yet to lose a single domestic game all season.
