Celtic boss Neil Lennon has hit out at rumours he is set to be replaced as manager of the club.
The Hoops legend has struggled in the manager's role this season and there were reports Rafa Benitez had been approached to take over.
That came after the Spaniard left Chinese club Dalian Pro but Lennon insists it's wrong to discuss the next boss while he's still in position at Celtic Park.
He said: "It is highly disrespectful but a lot of managers go through the same things.
"I don't think it is right, I don't think there is any foundation to it either so I just ignore it.
"I speak to Peter (Lawwell, chief executive) more or less every day about club duties, about the team, the transfer window, so I am just carrying on as normal."
Celtic are 23 points behind Rangers in the league and Lennon insists they are working hard to bring players in over the coming days.
They are about to lose Jeremie Frimpong with the defender set to join Bayer Leverkusen in a deal worth around £11.5m.
But Lennon has promised some signings will follow as he added: "We are looking to bring players in.
"We are looking at a number of positions, a number of options and we think we are a bit of the way down the line with one or two deals so hopefully we will have something for you in the next few days.
"I don't know if we will be spending money, we just maybe looking into one or two players on loan until the end of the season, bargains that we feel could be value for money and could make us better."
