Celtic are still hoping to get rid of flop signing Youssouf Mulumbu before the transfer deadline, The Scottish Sun report.

The report states Celtic expect to be able to shift Mulumbu out on a loan deal.

The midfielder featured for Celtic’s development squad on Monday.

It is likely this was an exercise to keep up his fitness ahead of a potential move.

Mulumbu signed as a free agent in September after an excellent season for Kilmarnock last season.

He has failed to impress at Celtic and has not held down a place in the team.

Mulumbu has made three appearances in total, with just one coming in the Scottish Premiership.

Currently it is unclear as to which club Mulumbu could be headed.
