Jesse Marsch expands on Celtic comments as defiant Salzburg boss insists his 'work's not done'

In-demand Jesse Marsch doesn't believe his Salzburg exit is imminent a day after he admitted the vacant Celtic job would appeal to him.

The 47-year-old American is a rising star due to his work with New York Red Bulls and his time in Austria over the past 18 months.

Celtic are on the lookout for a successor to Neil Lennon and Marsch is the latest boss in the mix after a host of big name candidates have ALSO been touted.

Those include Roy Keane with the Manchester United icon keen to be considered for the vacancy.

But Marsch insists he still has things left to achieve with his current side who are five points ahead at the top of the Austrian league.

He said: "My work here is definitely not done, we have a lot of fun together.

"With the board and the group with Stephan (rider, managing director) and Christoph (friend, sports director), with my coaching staff and the team.

"You will see what the next steps are. What is important for the club and for me. My family is very happy in Salzburg.

"We have made many friends. It is not necessary to take a step.

"The most important thing is to concentrate on our work. We now have two months."
