Celtic are thought to be worried over Crystal Palace scuppering their plans to take Eddie Howe to Celtic Park.

That’s according to Football Insider, and plenty of Eagles fans have been sharing their thoughts to the update on social media.

Football Insider have been informed by a Celtic source, who claim that the Hoops are worried Palace could push for Howe after it was revealed that Frank Lampard pulled out of the running to replace Roy Hodgson.

Lampard held extensive talks with the Palace hierarchy and was one of the favourites for the job, but he no longer wants to be considered for the vacant role going forward.

Howe also spoke with the Eagles last month, and it seems as if the Scottish giants, who have reportedly agreed on a move with the Englishman, are now worried Palace could look to revisit their interest in the 43-year-old.

He ticks box on paper of experienced PL Manager who plays more attractive football & isn’t under contract elsewhere, is personable & likely to opt for Southern England job”Credit: @neiog
