Celtic Exclusive: Brendan Rodgers eyeing summer move for Championship star
CELTIC are considering a £1.5million summer move for John McGinn.
Brendan Rodgers is a big fan of John McGinn
The Scottish cap is a player Hoops boss Brendan Rodgers rates highly.
The midfielder, 22, has just come off a successful season where he has helped Hibs return to the Premiership as winners of the Championship.
McGinn has two years left on his contract at Hibernian
McGinn still has two years left on his contract but there is also strong interest from English clubs, including Sunderland. Rodgers is aware of potential English competition and is weighing up whether to make a quickfire bid.
The Hoops will offload several fringe players like Kris Commons and Scott Allan in the summer.
Hibs are keen to get McGinn to sign a new contract but have fallen short in their efforts so far.
