Hibernian manager Neil Lennon has suggested to The Scottish Sun that he is interested in singing Nottingham Forest-owned Peterborough United striker Jason Cummings and Celtic winger Lewis Morgan, who is on the radar of Sunderland, according to The Daily Star.

Lennon told The Scottish Sun when asked about Cummings and Morgan: “They would suit our style of play.

“Lewis is a player that we like but we’ll probably be in a queue with many clubs. And we obviously know Jason very well.”
