Report: Celtic set to beat West Ham to the signature of Shane Duffy

According to reports from Sunday Post, Celtic edging closer to secure the signature of Shane Duffy from Brighton this summer.

The 28-year-old has dropped down the pecking order at the Amex Stadium, and he will be allowed to leave the club.

The Bhoys have been heavily linked with a move for the defender who reportedly earns around £40k-per-week at Brighton.

Premier League clubs West Ham and West Brom are equally interested in signing Duffy, but it seems the Bhoys are looking to snap him up.

Neil Lennon is looking to bolster the squad whose defensive frailties were exposed in the Champions League exit to Ferencvaros.
