Celtic to loan Tyler Blackett
Scottish champions Celtic are understood to have agreed to sign Manchester United defender Tyler Blackett on a season-long loan deal.
The young centre-back has yet to feature at United this season, and has been tipped to seek a temporary switch away from Old Trafford.
Evening Times reports that the Hoops will sign the 21-year-old on a temporary deal, with an obligation to a permanent £4m switch at the end of the 2015/16 season.
It is added that the arrival of Blackett may pave way for the club to offload Southampton target Virgin van Dijk.
