Family comes first for Campbell
Neil Lennon wants Sol Campbell and is willing to allao a late start to his time with Celtic to keep him happy. Neil Lennon is willing to be flexible to get the right players into the club. Sol Campbell is getting married in July and Lennon would allow him to miss Celtic's opening Champions League qualifier to go on honeymoon if the veteran stopper were to sign on at Parkhead. Lennon is extremely keen to land the Arsenal man, who have only offered a one-year extension on his current deal. Lennon is said to be willing to offer a two-year deal at around £35,000-a-week. Lennon has also told Campbell he can head off with wife-to-be Fiona straight after their mid-July wedding which means he would also miss most of the four-game North American pre-season tour. The Celtic squad are due back for pre-season training on 1 July, and likely to fly out to America on the 12th. Their first competitive game will be a crucial Champions League third qualifying round first-leg tie on 28-29 July with the return on 4-5 August.Campbell said: "I'm getting married on July 17. "But Neil's told me he's quite flexible, that if I need ten days-two weeks honeymoon then he'll be fine with that. That really makes me happy because if I'm not happy, and my family's not happy, then you're not going to play your best football are you? If I were to sign for Celtic then I'm likely miss the first leg of the European tie. I don't know who Celtic will get, but hopefully it would be someone that would give them a good chance of progressing. It's a difficult one, but I can't move my wedding. Football's very important to me and I would give Celtic everything if I sign."
