According to The Scottish Sun, Hibernian manager Neil Lennon wants to bring Scott Allan from Celtic to the club in the January transfer window.

Hibernian has already agreed a pre-contract agree with Allan and will have the 27-year-old Celtic midfielder at Easter Road in the summer of 2019.

The Scotland international midfielder is out of contract at the Hoops at the end of the season.

The Scottish Sun has claimed that Hibernian manager Lennon wants to sign the 27-year-old this month and hopes that a deal can be struck with Celtic.

Leaving now

With Allan struggling for playing time at Celtic at the moment and clearly not in the plans of manager Brendan Rodgers, it does make sense for the Scotland international to join Hibernian now.

Celtic could get some decent transfer fee, and the Glasgow giants could use that to fund a transfer either in January or in the summer of 2019.

Hibernian are not in great form at the moment, and they could do with a player like Allan.
