Celtic’s Timothy Weah has been linked with a Premier League move.

Neil Lennon is still making his mind up on some of the current Celtic players, and forward Timothy Weah may just come into that category too.

Weah, 19, joined Celtic on loan in January, as Brendan Rodgers swooped to take the Paris Saint-Germain talent to Parkhead until the end of the season.

The United States international has shown glimpses of his talent, but since Rodgers’ exit, he has struggled for consistent playing time under Lennon.

Weah has played just 130 minutes under Lennon; 78 as a starter in just one game, against St Mirren last week – a game which he scored in – and 52 across four substitute appearances.

That’s a surprisingly low amount for a player of Weah’s quality, especially as The Scottish Sun claim that Celtic are keen to keep him on loan at Parkhead next season too.

That same report noted that Bournemouth are now interested in taking Weah to the Premier League this summer, meaning he may well not be back at Celtic next season anyway.

Now, Weah has taken to Instagram to post a cryptic message, quoting rapper Nipsey Hussle, who sadly passed away last week.

Weah’s post talks about focusing on long-term goals and not being too focused on short-term issues, believing that sticking to the plan is the best way forward – with many taking this to be a response to the rumours about his future.
