Martinez- who was linked to land the Real Madrid job last October - is being backed to lead Celtic’s SPFL charge next term despite being contracted to the Belgian FA until after Euro 2020.

The World Cup third-placed finishers are among the favourites to lift the trophy next summer.

Martinez managed Wigan for four-years between 2009 and 2013 after joining from Swansea City.

The Spaniard helped Latics win the FA Cup against Manchester City in 2013.
