Keane happy to wait for right job after Celtic links as Kilmarnock close in on goalkeeper Richards

Keane bides his time while Kilmarnock and Dundee get to work

Former Celtic forward Robbie Keane, who was linked with the Scottish champions as a managerial candidate this summer, says he has had plenty of approaches since leaving Ferencvaros — but is content to wait for the right opportunity.

Keane's name was circulated around Celtic's search for a manager during the summer, though the club ultimately went elsewhere. The Republic of Ireland great is in no rush, according to the Daily Record, despite regular interest in his services.

Kilmarnock closing in on keeper

Kilmarnock are reportedly close to signing goalkeeper Dave Richards, a deal that would give the Rugby Park club fresh competition between the posts.

Dundee fast-track contract talks

Dundee head coach Steven Pressley says the club will fast-track re-signing talks with the six players whose contracts run out next summer, moving early to secure the core of his squad before they enter the final year of their deals.

With the January window edging closer, the Dens Park club are keen to avoid losing key men for nothing — and Pressley wants the process accelerated rather than left to drift.
