Manager Roy Keane has revealed that his former Manchester United colleague Roy Carroll is currently training with the Blues, but says he has no plans to sign the 33-year-old goalkeeper. The Northern Irish international is currently with Danish side Odense.
Keane said: "Roy Carroll has trained with us today, he’s a friend of mine from the United days. He’s having a week or two with us, he’s on his mid-winter break in case you start jumping to conclusions.
"Roy lives in London and they’re on a mid-winter break, so he’s training with us before you all start thinking we’re signing him or he’s one of the targets.”
Pressed further on whether the Enniskillen man’s time at the club might become more than just training, the Blues boss added: "Not at the moment, no.”
Capped 19 times by Northern Ireland, Carroll was linked with a move to the Blues last summer, but dismissed claims of talks having taken place.
The former Hull, Wigan, West Ham, Rangers and Derby keeper joined Odense in the summer of 2009, signing a three-year deal and winning the Goalkeeper of the Year award in his first season in Denmark.
