What’s the story? Interesting. Both clubs have money and both clubs could do with power and drive in midfield. However, Celtic are going to cling on to him if they can.Does it make sense? Yes, he’d be a great signing for both clubs. Wanyama has ideal size to be a dominating presence in a Premier League midfield.Is the price right? £10m is an awful lot. However, he’s only 21 and if his play can be refined he could become really special.Will it happen? 6/10 – They can both afford it and are just as likely as each other to get it done. But, Celtic will fight hard with no real reason to sell him.
