Osaze Urhoghide has joined Oostende on loan until the end of the season.
The defender joined Celtic at the start of July and featured in the pre-season friendlies in Wales but has only made one competitive appearance.
That was in December when he impressed at right-back in the Europa League tie against Real Betis but there has been no follow up appearances.
Tony Ralston and Josip Juranovic have battled it out for the right-back slot, at the age of 21 Urhoghide isn’t eligible to play for the Celtic B team in the Lowland League.

Dundee and Morecambe were both interested in signing the defender but he has opted to follow the path taken by Jack Hendry in 2020.
The former Dundee defender was well out of the picture at Celtic but played his way into the Scotland squad for the European Championships then earned a permanent deal at Oostende and a quick-fire move to Club Brugge.
