Frank McAvennie urges Celtic to break the bank for Filip Benkovic

Former Celtic star Frank McAvennie has urged the club to break the bank for Filip Benkovic.

The on-loan Leicester City defender has been outstanding for Brendan Rodgers’ side so far and he would be a tremendous signing for any side in the Scottish League.

McAvennie believes that Benkovic could go to the very top just like Virgil van Dijk and Celtic should look to sign players like him.

He said: “Benkovic has come in and, boy, what a great player. He’s going to go all the way to the very top.
