‘Keane in!’ as Roy rejects Turkey

After months of relentless campaigning by fans to force one Kean out of the club, Blackburn could turn to another Keane to lead their battle for promotion back into the Premier League.

Former Manchester United legend Roy Keane returned from Turkey this week after failing to agree a deal with Turkish side Kasimpassa.  The Irishman man was offered a £4.5 million pound deal lasting three years.  Keane turned the deal down claiming he is interested in succeeding Steve Kean as Blackburn manager.

However, Keane will face competition from a surprisingly star studded array of ex-players and famous names who are also interested in the job.  Keane’s old teammate Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and Blackburn favourite Alan Shearer are both eyeing up the vacant position as well.  The Blackburn board have said they will not rush into a decision but this Turkish U-turn could be a sign that Keane knows something we don’t.
