Manchester United legend, Roy Keane, could return to management as coach of Azerbaijan.

Keane is willing to get back into management after a spell on the sidelines following his departure from the Republic of Ireland set-up.

The Sun says the wealthy state have made former Manchester United legend Keane their first choice to lead them in the Nations League.

Azerbaijan have been promoted to Group C and have a chance of qualifying from that as they try to get on the map.

The terms are attractive but Keane may have to be persuaded to take the post as he wants to be sure his next job is right.

Azerbaijan are pushing for an answer in the next 48 hours as their search for Nikola Jurcevic’s successor comes to a head.

A source close to the Azerbaijani FA confirmed Keane is their top choice.
