The former Celtic striker’s comments about Leicester City could come back to bite him.
Some Leicester City fans are taunting Chris Sutton after a player they released was reported to be joining Celtic on trial.
According to the Scottish Sun, Danny Simpson will train with Celtic next week as he attempts to earn a contract at Parkhead.
A Premier League winner with Leicester in 2015/16, the right-back only appeared 10 times for the Foxes’ first-team last season.
And after Sutton claimed in March that Celtic’s reserves are bigger than Leicester, some City fans are taking great pleasure from this week’s reports.
This is what they’re saying on Twitter…
Celtic have seen a trio of right-backs, Mikael Lustig, Cristian Gamboa and Jeremy Toljan, depart since the end of last season.
But what Simpson make an adequate replacement?
This is the verdict from those of a Leicester persuasion…
Simpson began his career at Manchester United, before spells at Newcastle United, Queens Park Rangers and Leicester.
The 32-year-old moved to the King Power Stadium in 2014, shortly after the Foxes were promoted to the Premier League.
