The former Mackem is the new Ipswich manager.

Roy Keane has targeted promotion to the Premier League "at the earliest opportunity" after taking over at Portman Road.

The 37-year-old has been out of work since departing as Sunderland manager last December.

Keane: "I truly believe that I am joining a club that has the potential, ambition and infrastructure to once again be a Premier League side.

"The club's owner (Marcus Evans) and chief executive (Simon Clegg) impressed upon me their total focus on achieving this quest at the earliest opportunity and I can't wait to get started."

Alan Shearer: "I'm not really interested, I have got more important things to worry about, to be honest.

"But I wish him well."
