Stephen Craigan has said on BT Sport that there ‘could be some movement’ on Jack Hendry’s move from Celtic to Motherwell soon.

The Daily Record claimed earlier this week that the frozen-out Hoops defender is on the Fir Park club and Kilmarnock’s radar.

Hendry, who joined Celtic for £1.5 million a little over 18 months ago [The Record], hasn’t made a single appearance under Neil Lennon, who replaced Brendan Rodgers at Parkhead in February.

His days in Glasgow look numbered, and Motherwell legend Craigan says that this old side have held discussions over signing the 24-year-old.

He told BT Sport: “I think it could happen. I know Stephen Robinson is looking to bring another centre half in. There has been discussions and there could be some movement on that.”

Hendry has been a dismal Celtic signing. It just hasn’t worked out at all and there’s no room for him in Lennon’s side it doesn’t seem.

The Celtic boss has Christopher Jullien, Kristoffer Ajer and Jozo Simunovic at his disposal, while Nir Bitton can also play central defence.

Hendry leaving makes sense for all parties.
