There has been a new update on Robbie Keane’s stance on his future as Tottenham and other clubs circle over the Irishman.
The former Spurs striker’s impressive work at Ferencvaros has put him on the radar of British clubs, including Tottenham.
Some outlets have claimed that Keane is Spurs’ preferred option to replace Igor Tudor, with the Lilywhites already thought to have contacted the Tottenham legend regarding a fairytale return to N17.
A new update has shed light on whether the 45-year-old would be open to taking the reins at the North London club.
Robbie Keane is not interested in an interim role at Tottenham
A new report in TEAMtalk has confirmed that Spurs are one of the clubs chasing the budding Irish coach, but he is relaxed over his future.
It is revealed that Keane is ‘in no hurry to decide’ on the next step in his managerial career as he waits for a possible offer from Tottenham.
The report claims that the Spurs legend is seen as a ‘long-term successor’ to Tudor, with his understanding of the club’s culture and fan base making him an ‘appealing candidate’ to the North Londoners.

The Lilywhites will not have a free run at their former striker, who is not short of suitors ahead of the summer.
TEAMtalk say that Crystal Palace have shortlisted Keane to replace Oliver Glasner, who will leave Selhurst Park at the end of this season.
The Eagles value the 45-year-old’s motivational qualities and his Premier League pedigree and see him as someone capable of energising their squad.
Additionally, it is revealed that Keane has emerged as the frontrunner to take over at Celtic from interim boss Martin O’Neill in the summer.
