Osaze Urhoghide drops major Celtic hint as Hoops transfer target keeps check on club

Osaze Urhoghide has dropped a major hint that he will be joining Celtic over the coming days.

The Sheffield Wednesday player is expected to join Liam Shaw in moving north of the border with a deal to be agreed soon for him.

And the defender's social media activity suggests he is keeping a close eye on what could become his new club and their manager Ange Postecoglou.

The Aussie took charge officially last week and was unveiled to the media in a press conference as he explained his plans for the club's future.

Urhogide was clearly watching closely as his social media shows him liking videos from the press conference ahead of his potential switch to Glasgow.

The defender is tipped to join the club and become Postecoglou's first signing with Shaw having agreed a deal at Celtic Park while Neil Lennon was still in charge.

He was expected to move to Leeds but turned down the Premier League outfit as well as Benfica with Celtic leading the race to sign him.

Boss Darren Moore has offered him a bumper new contract and has promised the player regular football in League One following their relegation from the Championship.
