Former Celtic manager Billy McNeill claims the signing of Roy Keane was a waste of money for the Parkhead club.

McNeill, who skippered Celtic when they won the European Cup in 1967, insists the former Manchester United midfielder was well past his best when he arrived in Glasgow.

He told the Scottish Sun: "I hate to say it but I warned Gordon Strachan against signing Roy Keane in the first place and yesterday my fears were realised.

"Celtic were never going to get sort of return from the veteran midfielder that they were looking for. Just 13 games and one goal in six months in Scotland - if I'd still been in charge then I would have been bitterly disappointed with that.

"But then if I had still been in charge at Parkhead I wouldn't have signed him.
