Scottish Champions Celtic Interested In Signing Nigerian Winger

Bournemouth winger Jordon Ibe may part ways with the Cherries before the close of the summer transfer window as Scottish champions Celtic are interested in his services.

According to the Scottish Sun, the 23-year-old winger is a prime target for Celtic manager Neil Lennon who is hoping to have the player in his squad.

The report also suggested that Ibe will likely join the Scottish powerhouse on a season-long loan.

Since joining the Cherries in 2016, the former Liverpool youngster has failed to hit the ground running as he is not getting the game time he desires.

He started just nine Premier League matches last season and recorded just one goal in the process.

Ibe was once targeted by the Nigeria Football Federation during his days at Anfield but he turned down the chance to play for the three-time African champions.
