Expect Neil Lennon and Celtic to try and bolster their squad almost immediately after Friday’s managerial confirmation.
As we sit here on Monday morning, the reality of what’s ahead for the new Celtic boss will be enough to spark him into action.
Celtic will start their Champions League qualifiers in early July and must be in a position to hit the ground running as the midweek games come thick and fast.
The fans are waiting with anticipation as to who exactly Neil brings into the club within the next month and according to RecordSport, the most likely signing to be first in the door is a man already been mentioned several times.
Rekeem Harper was watched by Neil Lennon in the Championship playoffs last month and that visit was shortly followed up by a VIP invitation for the West Brom midfielder for trophy day at Celtic Park – Rekeem was in attendance when the bhoys lifted the SPFL trophy.
Since then, it’s been all quiet on this front with the same report claiming there has been nothing to add to the story at this point, but they believe the deal is ‘likely to happen’.
Rekeem is a 19-year-old midfielder who has made 23 appearances for the Baggies last season. He’s currently out of contract and Celtic can pick the player up for a nominal FIFA training fee.
