Filip Benkovic starred on loan for Celtic last season.
Some Celtic fans are losing hope of a Parkhead return for Filip Benkovic in January.
Benkovic spent last season on loan to Celtic from Leicester City and helped the Bhoys to win a domestic treble.
But the Croatian has yet to feature for Leicester’s first-team, despite being managed by the man who brought him to Celtic, Brendan Rodgers.
The Bhoys have since splashed out to sign Christopher Jullien as Benkovic’s successor and the Frenchman has proved a big hit alongside Kristoffer Ajer at the heart of Neil Lennon’s defence.
And Benkovic is now being linked with a move to Derby County, with The Telegraph reporting that the Rams have launched a bid to sign him on loan.
This is what the Celtic faithful are saying on Twitter…
Leicester are reported to have paid around £13 million for Benkovic during last year’s summer transfer window.
But the 22-year-old remains behind Jonny Evans, Caglar Soyuncu and Wes Morgan in Rodgers’ plans.
