ian1964 10,870 Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 SOL CAMPBELL last night told Celtic boss Neil Lennon he's ready to solve their defensive crisis. Lennon fears stopper Daniel Majstorovic faces a lay-off after he suffered a hamstring strain in the tense 1-0 win over Aberdeen. SunSport understands the gaffer is considering a loan bid for ex-Arsenal and England ace Campbell, who chose Newcastle ahead of Celts last summer. The 36-year-old, below, isn't in new Toon boss Alan Pardew's plans and would consider a move north. Campbell admitted: "I'd look at the situation, I'd look at everything. But Celtic have to come to me and Newcastle have to come to me and say x, y, z. Newcastle would have to decide what they want to do. "I couldn't come to an agreement with Celtic last summer, that's the way it goes at times. I was still impressed by the club. "Sometimes six months down the road people can wake up and realise things better, look at the bigger picture. "We'll see what happens. Watch this space, eh?" Majstorovic is set to miss Wednesday's title crunch with Hearts and is doubtful for the Co-op Cup semi-final with Dons. That has Lenny in a sweat with Thomas Rogne his only other fit stopper after Jos Hooiveld's loan move to Copenhagen. He confirmed on Saturday that he could try and strike a permanent �£300,000 deal for Nottingham Forest's Kelvin Wilson who has agreed a pre-contract for next term. Lennon, also looking at Aston Villa's Curtis Davies, said: "Daniel felt a strain and he tried to play on. But we couldn't take a chance. "We will be looking to bring a player in for that area. "We'll have to speed things up a bit. It would be a blow to lose Daniel because he's been immense in the last couple of months. "We've been looking to strengthen in that area anyway with Jos Hooiveld leaving and Glenn Loovens out." On the prospect of returning for Wilson, he said: "I'd imagine that would be one of the options we'd look for again."

ian1964 10,870 Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 CELTIC are eyeing a stunning bid to snap up former Rangers kid Danny Wilson on loan. Record Sport has learned Parkhead boss Neil Lennon made what is being described as a "tentative" Inquiry about a possible deal to bring Wilson back to Glasgow from Liverpool for the rest of the season. This coincided with the youngster - who left Ibrox in August for an initial fee of �£2million - having a heart-to-heart with Reds boss Kenny Dalglish yesterday. It's understood Dalglish told the Scotland new boy he is part of his plans for the rest of the season and the club would be reluctant to let him go. The 19-year-old has made only three top-team appearances since moving and has been struggling just to hold down a place on the bench since Dalglish took over from Roy Hodgson. This prompted Wilson to ask to be allowed to leave on loan - and Lennon has made it clear he would be at the front of the queue if the answer is yes. A Celtic source said: "Neil has made a tentative enquiry about getting Danny because he is desperately trying to find some quality defensive cover before the transfer window shuts. "We suspect at this stage Kenny will want to keep him for the club's Europa League campaign but Neil has not given up hope of bringing him in." Lennon is desperately searching for central defensive options following Saturday's hamstring injury to Swedish stopper Daniel Majstorovic. After a scan yesterday Celtic confirmed the Swede will miss the next three weeks. The Parkhead boss had hoped to fast track Kelvin Wilson's arrival from Nottingham Forest but has been told it will cost as much as �£600,000 to secure him now rather than land him on a free transfer in the summer. And Forest boss Billy Davies has hit out at Lennon for revealing he wanted the City Ground ace on board this month. Davies said: "I think Celtic have done a lot of talking in the press. Losing Wilson and having to then replace him, with all the disruption that would entail? For me, it is a no-brainer." 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
