Manchester City are the latest side to express interest in signing Roy Keane.
Irish legend Keane's future is a hot topic of debate with the midfielder a free agent following his surprise split from Manchester United on Friday.
Celtic are rumoured to be leading the chase for his signature, although Bolton, Portsmouth, Wigan, Everton, West Brom and Aston Villa are also said to be keeping a close eye on developments.
City boss Stuart Pearce has admitted he would love to sign a player of the stature of Keane and claims the club need to be associated with players of the midfielder's standing in the game.
"I think this club would like to be associated with good players and Roy Keane falls into that category," said Pearce, who spent three years with the tough-tackling midfielder at Nottingham Forest in the early 1990s.
"Every club in the world at the moment has their name attached to Roy Keane.
"I think the fact we are in a city where he lives and works means we might be attached as well.
"As long as this club continues to get attached to good players I think that is a good thing.
"We are certainly looking at players who might improve our team - we always are and always will be and Roy is a good player, one who can improve our team.
"He is a good player and that is borne out by the number of teams who have been associated with a player who has only been released by his club for a couple of days.
"He is a big, big footballer, he has got leadership qualities in abundance, he's got ability in abundance and wherever Roy goes to play his football now I'm sure he will be a credit to that side he joins."
