Steve Clarke keen to speak to Celtic about succeeding Ronny Deila

Steve Clarke is interested in speaking to Celtic about succeeding Ronny Deila as manager.

Former Everton and Manchester United boss David Moyes remains the Sky Bet favourite to replace Deila after he announced his intention to step down at the end of the season.

Former Celtic manager Neil Lennon has also registered his interest but Clarke, who was sacked by Reading in December after a year in charge of the Championship club, told Goals on Sunday he would be keen to discuss the role.

"There are a lot of good managers out of work and Celtic is a great club," Clarke said. "If they want to give me a call, it would be nice.

"Celtic is a massive club, and anybody that comes from the west coast of Scotland understands the size. Next year will be fantastic with Rangers back in the SPL.

"Aberdeen made a good fist of it this year, and hopefully Hibs will come back up through the playoffs from the Championship and it can be a really exciting league next year.

"It's a big job and Celtic I'm sure have it in their own mind who they want to go after and who they want to target, and we should just let Celtic get on with their business."

Former Chelsea manager Roberto Di Matteo, who has been out of management since leaving Bundesliga club Schalke in May 2015, joined Clarke on the Goals on Sunday sofa.

But the Italian refused to be drawn on whether he would take the job if offered the position.

"No, I have not [been offered the job]," Di Matteo told Ben and Kammy. "I don't know, if ever it comes up I will think about it."
