Celtic’s Neil Lennon isn’t looking at a move to Fulham.

Celtic boss Neil Lennon has been linked with a move to Fulham – but he isn’t too interested in the speculation right now.

Lennon has endured a whirlwind 2019, as he was sacked by Hibernian in January, bringing an end to two-and-a-half years in the Easter Road dugout.

However, Lennon was back in management just a few weeks later, as he was handed a return to Celtic, coming in as interim boss following Brendan Rodgers’ move to Leicester City.

Lennon was charged with the task of steadying the Celtic ship and ensuring the Scottish Premiership title was secured once again, which appears imminent.

Lennon could also win the Scottish Cup before the end of the season, but he may still not get the job on a permanent basis, given that the quality of football has dipped significantly since Rodgers’ exit.

The Northern Irishman remains the favourite for the job though, but his work with Celtic appears to be attracting rival interest ahead of the Bhoys making their final decision on his future.

The Scottish Sun report that Fulham are interested in landing Lennon as their new manager this summer, adding him to their shortlist alongside Kilmarnock boss Steve Clarke.

However, Lennon has played down the rumours, giving The Scottish Sun just three words in response to the rumours; “It’s all noise,” said Lennon, who will still be hoping to land the Celtic job full time this summer.
