Former English Premier League manager, Harry Redknapp, spoke this morning on Talksport about the Celtic managers position and the rumours surrounding Eddie Howe becoming the next Parkhead boss.  Whilst Redknapp recognised that Howe was “massive odds-on” for the Paradise hot seat, he believes his future may lie in the English Premier League.

Speaking frankly, Redknapp said, “Eddie was massive odds-on for the Celtic job a few weeks back.

“There’s absolutely no chance he’ll go back to Bournemouth. No chance.

“But I think Eddie will get back into the game come the summer.

“There will be a Premier League club for Eddie, I think he’ll come back.”

Redknapp also addressed the rumour of his nephew, Frank Lampard, becoming the next Celtic gaffer, and when speaking to the Daily Record he said, “That’s certainly something that would interest any manager. It’s a great football club to come and manage, that’s for sure.

Should Eddie Howe replace Neil Lennon?

YES

NO

“Neil Lennon is still there so I wouldn’t want to talk too much about someone else taking his job but obviously it would be interesting to see Frank in direct opposition to Steven Gerrard.

“I don’t know whether, if the Celtic job came up, it would be something that would interest Frank. Obviously Neil Lennon is still in charge and I wouldn’t want to see him lose his job.

“Would Frank want to jump straight back in if it did become available? I wouldn’t know.

“But you could certainly see the appeal.”
