Defender Odubajo is not partaking in Celtic training.

Moses Odubajo has remained coy over his future in an interview with the Scottish Sun, despite flying out to Austria to join Celtic at their training camp this summer.

The 24-year-old has failed to play a single match in two years after a long-term injury suffered back in 2016, but is now fit and says himself that he is ready to return to action.

His contract at current club Hull City expires this weekend – June 30 – and he will be allowed to leave the English Championship side on a free transfer. Celtic are in talks to sign the right-back, who joined Hull for £3.5million from Brentford.

Speed machine Odubajo stated that he is “ready” to play, but did say that he is yet to make a decision on his future as talks with the Scottish champions continue.

“I can’t confirm anything at the moment,” Odubajo said. “I can confirm I’m fit, but not where I’m going. It’s been a long time. But I’m ready to play and the main thing is getting my career going again.”

Odubajo, who worked under former Rangers boss Mark Warburton at Brentford, was once the subject of a £12million bid from Everton – according to Warburton.

Celtic have options at right-back, in the form of Mikael Lustig, Cristian Gamboa and Anthony Ralston, but Gamboa’s future at the club remains in doubt while Ralston was loaned to Dundee United last season.

Rodgers is a big fan of Odubajo, himself telling the Scottish Sun that he believes the England youth international is a “big talent”.
