Blues Boss Lambert Linked With Celtic - Ipswich Town News
Town boss Paul Lambert is being linked with the manager’s job at Celtic with current incumbent Neil Lennon coming under increasing pressure.
Lennon has tonight received a vote of confidence from the Parkhead board with his side sitting second in the Scottish Premiership, 13 points behind Rangers, although with two games in hand.
According to 90 Min the Bhoys are weighing-up whether to make a move for Lambert should they decide to jettison Lennon.
Lambert played for Celtic between 1997 and 2005, during which time he won four league titles, two Scottish Cups, two Scottish League Cups and was Scottish Football Writer's Player of the Year in 2002.
The Scottish champions have also been linked with a number of other managers including former boss Martin O’Neill, Eddie Howe and Gordon Strachan with Lambert currently well down the betting at 20/1 with the bookies.
