Celtic boss Lennon will not give up on Man City attacker Bellamy

Celtic boss Neil Lennon is not ruling out a deal for Manchester City attacker Craig Bellamy.

There have been reports that Bellamy is not interested in joining the Bhoys, but Lennon is not giving up on a deal for the 32-year-old.

"Craig is still an option," said Lennon. "It could even be a last-day thing.

"I've not spoken to him but I'll liaise with Manchester City on that. We haven't had a definitive 'no' on it.

"I'm sure people will become available when the English clubs name their 25-man squads. Sometimes you have to play a waiting game but we are working on a number of things.

"We'd like to bring a left back in to cover Izaguirre's loss, maybe until January. But it's difficult to convince players just to come until then."
