Tottenham, Blackburn target Ki wary of departing Celtic

Celtic midfielder Ki Sung-yeung is very wary of up and leaving the Glasgow club.

The 23-year old South Korea international enjoyed a successful season with the Hoops, making over 40 appearances in all competitions, to help the club take out the Scottish Premier League title.

Ki has been linked with a number of clubs recently, including Tottenham and Blackburn Rovers, but suggests that he would want guarantees of first team football if he was to depart Parkhead.

"Since the season is now over, it's about time to think deeply about my future," Ki told reporters.

"First, I need to take a rest since I'm tired both physically and mentally. I know I don't have much time left to play in Europe. I will need to make my decision very carefully.

"It has to be a team that I can play for. If I can play on the pitch, it doesn't matter which league it is.

"I think I've grown up after playing in the SPL. Even if it's not a 'big league,' if I can just play, I will be able to develop myself more and get more good experiences."
