Neil Lennon sees former Rangers rival set to replace him as Omonia move fast

Former Rangers star Shota Aveladze could replace Celtic legend Neil Lennon at Omonia Nicosia after reports claimed that he had already had an interview with the club.

Lennon, who was appointed at the Cypriot club back in March - just over a year after his departure from Celtic - started off on the right foot by winning the national cup, this qualifying for the Europa League. Pitted against Real Sociedad and Manchester United, fans of the capital city side could dare to dream as they took on two of Europe's powerhouses.

But despite almost masterminding a draw away at United, with Scott McTominay's 92nd-minute goal being the difference, alongside a 2-3 home loss to the Red Devils and a 2-1 away loss to Sociedad, Lennon has been relieved of his duties over a series of underwhelming performances in the Cypriot top-flight - with Arveladze tipped to replace him.
