Jack Hendry will leave Celtic and join KV Oostende imminently, according to The Daily Record.

It has been reported that the 25-year-old central defender will make the season-long loan move imminently.

The Scotland international will fly out to Belgium today for his medical and will complete his switch tomorrow afternoon, according to the report.

It has been further claimed that although the defender had options in Scotland, he has decided to go abroad, having spent part of last season on loan at Melbourne City in Australia.

Good decision?

Hendry joined Celtic from Dundee in January 2018 when Brendan Rodgers was in charge of the Hoops.

The central defender has failed to make a huge impact at Celtic Park and is essentially a squad player.

A loan exit does make sense, as he is not going to get much playing time at the Glasgow giants next season.

Hendry is now 25 years of age, and for him to further his career, he needs to play regular first-team football.

KV Oostende finished second from bottom in the Jupiler Pro League this past season.
