Neil Lennon admits he would be interested in taking over at either Fulham or Cardiff City, with both Championship clubs currently looking for a new manager.

Fulham ended Felix Magath's reign yesterday when showing the former Bayern Munich manager the door following a poor start to the season which sees the Cottagers bottom of the league with one point from seven games.



Cardiff meanwhile chose to axe Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, also for a run of poor results, and with the Norwegian having presided over just five wins in his 25 games in charge.

Lennon, who left Scottish champions Celtic at the end of last season, is attracted to both clubs.

 


"They are two excellent clubs. Would I be interested in managing either of them? Of course I would", the 43-year-old told BBC Radio 5 live.

"I'm enjoying what I am doing at the moment but I want to get back into management and both clubs would appeal to me.

"I want a new challenge. I had a great challenge for four years at Celtic but I felt I had come to the end of the cycle there and wanted to do something else with my career.

"I'm hoping to be in work sooner rather than later.

"I had four years in a goldfish bowl and it gets very intense. I have enjoyed the break, even though I didn't think I would, but you can only do that for so long", the Northern Irishman added.
