Arsenal are among 26 clubs to have been linked with the Frenchman
Odsonne Edouard has been linked with numerous clubs, but it appears he will be going nowhere in this transfer window.
That’s according to Celtic boss Neil Lennon, who is expecting to hold on to the striker for the time being.
23-year-old Edouard has scored 11 times in 23 matches this season, but has failed to hit the heights of previous campaigns in Glasgow.
The likes of Arsenal and West Ham are among 26 clubs who have been mentioned in connection with the Frenchman.
As quoted by the Glasgow Times, Lennon said: “There’s been no bids for him. There’s been no speculation surrounding him this window.
“There’s been no interest in him at all particularly in this window.”
The Daily Star have put Edouard’s value at £35m, and the player is expected to leave Celtic Park in the summer.
One man who is set to leave the Scottish champions before the end of this transfer window is Jeremie Frimpong.
It was confirmed on Tuesday that the right-back is in talks with another club abroad, and despite reported interest from Fiorentina it’s believed that his next move will be to Bayer Leverkusen in a deal worth over £10m.
The Scottish Sun have quoted Lennon as saying: “He made it clear he wanted to leave.
“This hasn’t appeared in the last couple of days. This has been in the background for the last six or seven weeks.
“The club have made strides to renegotiate with Jeremie and that wasn’t the case. The player made it clear to me, to Nick (Hammond, head of football operations) and to the board that he wanted to leave.”
After a free weekend, Celtic return to action tonight as they play host to Hamilton Accies.
