The Daily Mirror are reporting Celtic are interested in signing Hornets wing-back Ikechi Anya in a £4 million deal.

The Glasgow-born Scottish international made 37 appearances for Watford this season as the Golden Boys secured promotion to the Premier League.

It isn’t the first time Anya has been linked with a move to the Old Firm club. Reports surfaced last summer and again in the winter stating the Bhoys were interested in the 27-year-old.

Anya said in December that he pays little interest to speculation over his future and added: “I just play my football because you can’t stop things like rumours. You have no control over that.”
