Celtic midfielder Scott Allan has sparked rumours suggesting he is set to leave Parkhead in January after being photographed at Saturday’s Edinburgh derby.

The 27-year-old returned to his parent club in the summer following loan spells with Dundee and Hibernian last season but has not played at all for Brendan Rodgers’ side this term, according to Transfermarkt.

Allan, who has enjoyed two loan spells at Hibs during his career, was talked about by Neil Lennon at the club’s annual general meeting, refusing to rule out a third spell at Leith for the midfielder, according to The Scottish Sun.

At the weekend, Twitter user Ben Dalziel uploaded a photo of himself with Allan in the Easter Road stands:

Another Twitter account, Home of Hibs, shared another photo of Allan, this time watching the game:

The images prompted plenty of speculation to emerge as some Hibbees fans took to Twitter to express their opinions on a potential reunion between club and player:

Allan, who is contracted to Celtic until the end of the season, has made 17 appearances for the Hoops, claiming five assists in the process, while his Hibs tally stands at six goals and 22 assists from 55 games (Transfermarkt).
