“But we have received no offers from Scottish clubs and no decision has been made on his future, so there’s no way a valid comment can be made on this subject.â€
Villas-Boas has been out of work since leaving Chinese Super League club Shanghai SIPG in November 2017.
Since then, he has plied his trade in motor sport and competed in the 2018 Dakar Rally.
Lennon, Villas-Boas and Belgium boss Roberto Martinez are the bookmakers’ favourite for the permanent job at Celtic Park.
However, Martinez has been ruled out of taking the post by his agent.

He said: “Roberto always seems to be on the shortlist as soon as there is a vacancy at a big club.
“But this is a false rumour about him going to Celtic.
“It seems to have come from the fact Roberto has a Scottish wife and he obviously has ties to the country.
“However, there’s nothing to see here and I would suggest the bookies review their odds.â€
