Celtic midfielder Neil Lennon is on the verge of signing a new deal, according to his agent.

The Northern Irishman is believed to have other offers on the table from English clubs.

But his agent Martin Reilly claims Lennon still loves life in Glasgow and could put pen to paper one a one-year extension next week.

He told the Daily Record: “We’re very happy with the way Celtic are dealing with the matter. We haven’t been putting pressure on the club, although Neil has made it clear he wants to stay and we’re setting up more talks for next week.

“At this moment we are close to a deal. I can’t say it will definitely happen next week but there is a good chance it might.

“Neil wants to stay and all he’s asking for is a one-year package.”
