Celtic are expected to complete a deal to sign Sunderland winger Fabio Borini for £6 million this summer, according to the Chronicle Live.

The Italian has also been linked with moves to Serie A after it was revealed he has a £6 million relegation release clause.

Borini is a player that Brendan Rodgers knows well, having worked with the player at Chelsea, Swansea and Liverpool.

During their time at Swansea, Borini played a key part in the campaign that saw the Welsh side promoted to the Premier League.

Celtic are in the market for a winger this summer, with it looking increasingly unlikely that Patrick Roberts will be returning to the club after his loan spell from Manchester City.

Aberdeen’s Jonny Hayes in another name on the list of potential targets for Celtic this summer, in a deal that could see Ryan Christie head in the other direction.
