Lennon reveals De Rosario interest

27 December 2010 20:30

Celtic manager Neil Lennon has revealed that Canada midfielder Dwayne De Rosario could join Freddie Ljungberg in training with his squad ahead of the January transfer window.

Toronto midfielder De Rosario, 32, has been offered to Lennon as he looks to strengthen his squad.

Ljungberg, 33, trained with Celtic on Monday after declaring himself ready to play in Sunday`s Old Firm derby if the Glasgow club follow up their interest in him.

De Rosario could follow if Lennon likes what he sees from the midfielder, who has scored 15 goals in 55 international appearances.

Lennon told the Evening Times: "Dwayne might be another one who we may be able to bring in for a week or so to have a look at him.

"He's a player who has been put to me. I've not had time to see much of him. But hopefully today I will get the chance to view some footage of him to see what I think."

Lennon has not ruled out signing both Ljungberg and De Rosario.

He added: "I'm not saying we are going to sign everyone who comes our way, and I'm not saying this is a done deal.

"But it might just be a little bonus for us along the way without it costing us the earth."
