Jack Hendry Celtic exit confirmed as Oostende look to make quick profit as Scotland star heads to Euro 2020

Celtic star Jack Hendry has agreed a three year deal with KV Oostende - but likely to be sold for a quick profit after Euro 2020.

The Belgium side confirmed several weeks ago that they were going to take up the option that was part of their loan agreement with Celtic.

KV have thrashed out terms with Hendry and are set to pay the £1.5 million transfer fee that is due to his current club.

The Jupiler League outfit are aware there is significant interest in the Scot and are they could make a significant profit on their summer investment.

Hendry is currently away with Steve Clarke’s Scotland squad as they finalise their Euro 2020 preparations.

The defender, who scored in the recent friendly against Holland, is already attracting big interest from a number of top clubs across Europe.

Belgian sides OH Leuven, who have a link up with Leicester City, and Genk are also interested in Hendry who was one of the league’s top players last season.

KV would be delighted if Hendry were to make use of their long-term contract but knows that now looks unlikely.
