Report: Celtic hopeful of striking loan deal for Timothy Weah

Celtic remain hopeful of agreeing a loan deal with Paris Saint-Germain for teenage forward Timothy Weah, according to a report.

The 18-year-old, son of Liberian legend George Weah, is wanted by Brendan Rodgers to shore up his attack line for the second half of the season.

Speaking ahead of Celtic's trip to Rangers, Rodgers hinted that the Bhoys are no closer to reaching an agreement with PSG.

Sky Sports News suggests that Weah could become a Celtic player as early as next week, however, with the Scottish champions planning to jet to Dubai for a winter training break.

Weah has been capped eight times by the United States and has featured twice for PSG in Ligue 1 this term.
