Spurs coach Joe Jordan insists there is no chance of Robbie Keane staying at Celtic.

The Republic of Ireland striker moved to Celtic on loan for the remainder of the season in January, but Jordan feels that Keane still has a major role to play at Spurs.

He told the Sunday Herald: “Without a doubt [Keane will return], he’s the captain.

“Harry [Redknapp] brought him back here and he was a major player in getting us out of trouble last season, not just on the pitch, but in the dressing room as well.

“He was an influential guy, he’s a leader, and there’s not many of them going about. It wasn’t just the player, it was the person we wanted.”
