Celtic could be set to to make an offer to Hearts and sign Aaron Hickey as the former Hoops youth player may be sold to cover any financial needs that the Edinburgh club might have.

The Jambos have been relegated and are set for a huge financial meltdown unless they can trim the squad and potentially sell their top stars.

Lennon could attempt to exploit their situation and place a bid for their most promising player Aaron Hickey as many clubs will be tracking his position also. (source)

The now 17 year old has entered the final year of his current current and it looks like Hickey might not sign a new one.

This means that Hearts would be forced to sell now rather than lose him for free later next year.

Lennon could easily purchase Hickey for less that £1.5 million but would have to act fast before other clubs place bids.

Our Opinion

Aaron Hickey has all the potential to be a star player one day and coming back to Celtic would easily benefit the 17 year old defender.

Some fans weren’t impressed with his performances but if he were to sign for the Hoops, Lennon would get the best out of him.
