As the search for the magical creative player continues there are a couple of options close to home- all already on Celtic’s books!

Finding a number 10 similar to Lubo Moravcik or Shunsuke Nakamura will require an awful lot of money, or luck but perhaps a Kris Commons type talent may be more realistic.

Discovering the player that can link together all of the attacking elements would certainly bring a new element to the side with Brendan Rodgers not prepared to compromise his plans by bringing in someone sub-standard.

The speculation over Moussa Dembele has diverted attention from the ‘revolving door’ with the ties against Zenit St Petersburg less than a month away.

While a run in the Europa League would be very welcome from January onwards the focus of Celtic will always be on Champions League qualifiers, assuming that the Premiership title is secured.

Since Lewis Morgan impressed against Celtic in the Scottish Cup he was watched closely, by various scouts as well as by the management team.

All of the players out on loan are being watched, perhaps one of them could be the number 10 to put all of Rodgers’ plans into place.
