Hibernian striker Steven Fletcher would like to be reunited with Tony Mowbray if the West Brom boss moves to Celtic. The 22-year-old played under Mowbray during their time together at Easter Road.

Celtic failed with a bid for the highly-rated striker back in January, but Fletcher believes now is the time to quit Hibs for a new challenge.

Speaking of Mowbray, he told the Herald: "He was a massive influence, not just as a manager but as a friend too."

He added: "It's up to the chairman. I want to push myself to further my career and if that means moving on from Hibs, then so be it. I'm ambitious and, if the opportunity comes along again, I think now might be the right time to leave.

"When Celtic were knocked back, I was a bit disappointed but I thought I handled it well. I kept scoring goals. It didn't affect me in a bad way."
