Robbie Keane expects his Ireland team-mate Shay Given to be back playing in the top flight next season.
Manchester City goalkeeper Given has endured a frustrating year at Eastlands after losing his place in the team to England number one Joe Hart. The 34-year-old is expected to move on in the summer and Keane has underlined the qualities the former Newcastle goalkeeper offers.
Tottenham striker Keane, who himself could be looking for a new club this summer, said: "I still feel he is the best 'keeper in the Premier League. I'm biased because I have worked with Shay and he is a good friend but, not only that, he is a top-class goalkeeper."
He added: "It has been a frustrating season for him and he has come out and said that.
"But I am sure in the summer, after getting these games behind him, he'll look forward to a break and he'll certainly get a club for next season, no doubt about that.
"Whoever does buy him would be getting a world-class goalkeeper and someone who is great to have around the dressing room as well."
