Share Roy Keane is a leading contender to be the new manager of the Iceland national team.
The 40-year-old Manchester United and Republic of Ireland legend has been out of work since January when he was sacked by Ipswich after a disappointing 20 months in charge.
Despite winning promotion to the Premier League for Sunderland in his first management role he was able to win just 28 of his 81 games in charge of the Tractor Boys.
Keane is understood to have already held talks with the Icelandic Football Association and is set to watch Tuesday’s Euro 2012 qualifier against Cyprus in Reykjavik.
Another ex-United star, former Reading and Crystal Palace boss Steve Coppell, is also being linked with the job, along with ex-Sweden manager Lars Lagerback.
The Icelandic authorities are looking for a replacement for current boss Olafur Johannesson, who is due to leave next month after four years in the post.
