Former Celtic captain and Fleetwood Town manager, Scott Brown, is reportedly in advanced talks to make a surprising return to management in Iceland.

After being relieved of his duties at Fleetwood Town in early September following a disappointing start to the season, the 38-year-old Scot has been linked to a few managerial positions.

Despite leading Fleetwood to a respectable 13th-place finish in League One during the 2022/23 season, as well as a great FA Cup run, Brown’s journey in management came to an abrupt end, but it seems like he might be on the verge of an intriguing new chapter.

With a rich history, boasting 27 league titles, KR is Iceland’s most successful club. However, they have found themselves in a bit of a rut recently, with just one league title in the last decade and a 6th place finish last season.
