Robbie Keane will be working alongside another well known Premier League hero after taking over the reigns at Maccabi Tel Aviv.
Football fans were caught off guard this week when Ireland's record goalscorer took over the reigns at Israel's most successful outfit. The club have won their national league title 23 times, but could only manage third place last season, leading to the axing of ex-Middlesbrough boss Aitor Karanka.
But few were expecting them to turn to Keane, who worked with Sam Allardyce at Leeds during his ill-fated four game stint to try and save the club from relegation. After picking up just a single point from four games, 'Big Sam' was shown the door and his assistants went with him.
