Former Leicester City defender Danny Simpson will reportedly head to Parkhead next week to join Scottish giants Celtic on trial.

The 32-year-old has been without a club since being released by the Foxes earlier this summer, but he may just have found a club already.

The Sun report that the Premier League title winner has been offered the chance to link up with Neil Lennon's Celtic next week.

Simpson is set to take up the opportunity as he looks to find a new club, hoping to impress another former City player in Lennon.

The Celtic boss revealed earlier this week that he is in need of a right-back, saying: “I think we’ll have something in the next few days hopefully.

“It might be a right-back, it might be a left-winger, it might be a centre-forward.

“Right-back is a priority, but we have a number of positions I’d like to strengthen like midfield and one or two attacking areas."

Simpson, who spent five years at City, will be hoping to be that man as he heads to Glasgow for his trial next week.

Celtic's season is already underway with the Champions League qualifiers beginning earlier this month.

The Bhoys face Nomme Kalju in the next round on Tuesday, with the second leg just one week later.
