Celtic Reignite Interest To Sign Christian Atsu This Summer

Scottish champions, Celtic, have reignited their interest in signing Ghana winger, Christian Atsu from Nwacstle United.

Steve Bruce, manager of Newcastle has confirmed that the 28 year old has to leave the club to seek for playing time elsewhere.

Celtic tried to sign Atsu in January but the Ghanaian rejected the move at the last minute in favour of staying and fighting for his place at Newcastle.

Neil Lennon, who is the head coach of th side as been a long time admirer of the forward and has asked for the availability on the player.

With just a year remaining on his Newcastle contract, Atsu is expected to attract a very reasonable transfer fee.

The former Chelsea winger is also said to be attracting interest from clubs in England and the Netherlands.
