Aston Villa boss Martin O'Neill is ready to make a £10 million bid for Celtic winger Aiden McGeady.
The Daily Star says Villa boss O'Neill will step up his bid to land the Republic of Ireland international as he prepares a summer recruitment drive.
McGeady is desperate to leave Celtic and team up again with his old manager at Villa Park.
The winger has been left out of Celtic's tour of the United States and boss Neil Lennon knows he is facing a losing battle to keep him.
Spartak Moscow have already seen an £8m offer rejected by the Glasgow giants - but O'Neill is set to lodge his bid soon.
