Celtic have brought in Oliver Burke, and that could force Lewis Morgan to leave Parkhead.

According to a report in the Daily Record, Celtic have already been approached by Hibernian over Lewis Morgan.

Morgan only joined Celtic in the summer, but he has found chances difficult to come by at Parkhead.

And Oliver Burke’s arrival at Celtic could reportedly force the 22-year-old to move on.

Hibs have been alerted to Celtic signing Burke from West Bromwich Albion, as they feel Morgan could be available.

Neil Lennon has already made contact with his former side over taking the attacker, who they feel could be a smart addition for the rest of the campaign.

Hibs would likely be looking at signing Morgan on loan, if they did bring him in this month.

Morgan has played 13 games for Celtic this season, but most of these appearances have been as a substitute rather than a starter.
