Sunderland and Aberdeen are reportedly among the clubs interested in Celtic winger Lewis Morgan.
The former Celtic midfielder and manager has suggested that Morgan should use the example of his teammate Ryan Christie and come back to Celtic Park stronger.
Christie had a loan spell at Aberdeen from January 2017 until the end of last season, and the 23-year-old Scotland intentional is now an important player for the Hoops.
Hay wrote about Morgan in The Glasgow Evening Times: “It needs to be trimmed and boys like Lewis Morgan, who I think has look bright at times when he has come on, would do well to get the chance to go and play on loan somewhere.
“They will benefit for the game time and you can see by Ryan Christie’s example that it is possible to still come back and make your mark.”
Leaving Celtic
Morgan was always going struggle for playing time at Celtic this season, and it does make sense for the winger to find a new club for the rest of the campaign.
There is no doubt that the 22-year-old has what it takes to establish himself in the Celtic team in the coming years, but for now, the Scotland international winger need playing time to develop and progress.
Interested clubs
Morgan reportedly has interest from other clubs. According to Sky Sports, Sunderland in League One in England are in talks with Celtic over a loan deal for the winger, while The Daily Record has claimed that Aberdeen, Hibernian and St. Mirren all want him.
