Celtic are lining up a fresh bid for David Turnbull according to reports.

The Scottish Sun say that Neil Lennon remains keen to sign the 21-year-old before the transfer window closes, after almost spending £3.25 million on the midfielder last summer.

Lennon sent first team coach Gavin Strachan to run the rule over Turnbull during Motherwell’s draw with Hibs on Saturday.

The attacking midfielder had all but signed for the Hoops last summer before Celtic pulled the plug on the deal after an issue was flagged up in Turnbull’s medical.

He subsequently faced knee surgery ­and a lengthy spell on the sidelines but was rewarded with a new contract at Fir Park.

After making a return to the first team before Covid-19 shut football down, Turnbull has started the new season strongly and scored a superb goal in his side’s recent clash with Livingston.

His Motherwell side will face Celtic at the end of the month.
