Victor Wanyama's move to Celtic will happen according to manager Neil Lennon.
The 20-year old Kenyan midfielder has agreed terms with the Glasgow giants but has not yet been granted a work permit to officially join.
Celtic had a similar situation with South Korean international Cha Du-ri last June so Lennon has experience with this and is confident all will be fine.
"We are still working on a permit for Victor. I will have to make the case for him like I did for Cha Du Ri and a couple of other players last season," he said.
"But I am confident the move will be OK."
