Scott Allan is on the brink of joining Celtic after they made a dramatic move in the fight for his signature. The Hibernian playmaker visited the champions’ training ground at Lennoxtown on Thursday night for talks over personal terms, following a day of discussions between the clubs that ended with a cash-plus-players deal. Sportsmail revealed in May that the Parkhead club were willing to engage Rangers – who have seen three bids rejected by Hibs - in a tug-of-war for Allan. Barring any late hitches, the 23-year-old is now expected to become Ronny Deila’s fifth summer addition, following Dedryck Boyata, Saidy Janko, Logan Bailly and Nadir Ciftci.Scott Allan visited the champions’ training ground at LennoxtownThe 23-year-old is now expected to become Ronny Deila’s fifth summer additionDylan McGeouch is set to head in the opposite direction as part of the deal
If finalised, the deal will represent a blow to _, who have been stonewalled in their attempts to land a player who grew up supporting the club.
