New Sunderland boss Jack Ross has not ruled out a move for Lewis Morgan later in the summer.
The former Saints boss was linked with a loan move for his former star but Lewis himself was adamant he is going to stay at Celtic to develop.
However, when asked if he was interested in linking up with players he has previously managed or guys who ply their trade in Scotland in general – Ross admitted there’s a big appeal.
”It’s natural that you will lean towards players that you know, but I’m also trying to identify those who have experience of this league.
”There will be ones in Scotland that fit the bill in terms of having the quality but not having experience of that league.
“We are still a bit uncertain about what holes we’ll have in the squad depending on who leaves the club.”
Lewis has spoken with the manager in pre-season and has been told to play himself into contention for a start in Celtic’s Champions League qualifiers.
Ross believes if Rodgers still thinks he needs to develop away for another season, he would be in pole position to take the bhoy to Sunderland.
