Roy Keane set for Iceland job

ROY KEANE is tipped to return to management as boss of international minnows Iceland.

Icelandic FA officials admit to being 'excited' at the prospect of the Manchester United legend taking over.

Keane, 40, has been out of work since he was axed by Ipswich in January and is believed to have already held talks about a deal.

Icelandic FA spokesman Omar Smarason said: "Roy Keane commands huge respect throughout the world of football, not just in Iceland.

"It would be amazing if he took over as the boss of the national team.

"Everyone is very excited at the prospect. Lots of big names have been linked with the job but nothing is confirmed yet."

Keane may even be at Iceland's Euro 2012 qualifier at home to Cyprus tonight. Iceland are bottom of Group H with just one point.

Current boss Olafur Johannesson's contract runs out at the end of the qualifying campaign next month.
