Chelsea midfielder Charly Musonda appears to have given the clearest indication yet that he is set to move to Parkhead, by liking a photo on Instagram.

Musonda hinted he was on the way to Celtic, by ‘liking’ a picture, liking him with a switch to Parkhead.

The Chelsea youngster appears set to move out on loan this month, due to a lack of game time, and Brendan Rodgers has been prepared to give him a new home.

Rodgers has already benefitted from taking promising Premier League youngsters on loan, with Patrick Roberts thriving at Celtic, after arriving on a temporary spell from Manchester City.

And there will be similarly high hopes for Musonda, if he does move to Celtic.

Rodgers has been looking for a new attacking midfielder for some time, as he wants more creativity, and Musonda could provide that.

If Musonda does arrive at Celtic, he will be available to play in their Europa League campaign, and could have a big role to play in domestic competition too.
