He has admitted the Ireland job appeals to him
Roy Keane has expressed an interest in the Republic of Ireland job.
The former national team captain has been out of front line management since leaving Ipswich Town in 2011, but he was assistant to Martin O'Neill with the Boys in Green between 2013 and 2018.
