Nine months on from being linked to Norwich City, it’s gone wrong for one Celtic youngster.

Regan Hendry is reportedly set to leave Celtic.

The Scottish Sun reported on Tuesday that the Hoops would not be offering the 21-year-old a new contract when his existing deal expires next month.

Hendry, a midfielder, impressed on loan at Raith Rovers last season and could be returning to the League One outfit.

Considering his prospects back in August, this seems like a major decline for him.

The Sun [August 5, page 61] reported toward the end of last summer’s transfer window that the youngster was close to joining Norwich City.

In fact, Hendry, who joined the Bhoys in 2015, was even training with the Canaries, who will be a Premier League team next season, but a move to Carrow Road never materialised.

In less than a year, Hendry’s prospects seem to have taken a major dip, but if he was on Norwich’s radar once upon a time then it’s because he’s a talented player and if he proves as much at Rovers, he’ll get noticed again.
