​Celtic keen for return of Man City winger Roberts

Celtic remain hopeful of re-signing 20 year old Manchester City winger Patrick Roberts this summer, according to assistant manager Chris Davies.

"They have been talking and the situation is always open to a certain extent because the transfer window is still open," Davies said.

"Patrick is someone we really enjoyed working with and there is obviously always going to be home here for Patrick if that suits everybody.

"The exact situation for Pat and Man City will be between him and the club at the moment."

"All I know is we value and rate the player and I am sure that if is right for everybody then something will be done, but we can't really control that at the moment," he added.

"There is constant dialogue really.

"He his playing for Manchester City so I can't comment too much on it.

"All I can tell you from my side and speaking for the manager is how much we enjoyed working with him and the rest will take care of itself."
