Burnley, Brighton eyeing Celtic defender Jack Hendry

Celtic defender Jack Hendry is attracting Premier League interest.

The Daily Mail says Burnley are among Premier League clubs monitoring Hendry.

The 6ft 4ins centre back has been starring for Belgian side Oostende where he is on loan this season and a string of man of the match performances have alerted scouts in the English top-flight.

Brighton and Sheffield United are also taking an interest in the 25-year old Scotland international, with Celtic's hierarchy due to make a decision on his future this summer.

A ball-playing defender, Hendry has benefited from regular football with Oostende rising to fourth in Belgium's First Division. Indeed the Belgian side are also keen to make Hendry's loan move permanent.
