Accies have reportedly agreed a fee with Wolves and Wigan of around £2million but the Parkhead club have also been linked with the Republic of Ireland Under-21 international. However, asked if the 18-year-old was on his radar, Mowbray replied: "No, I would suggest not with the numbers that have been bandied around at the moment." Mowbray, however, will have the services next season of Landry N'Guemo who signed on a year-long loan from French club Nancy. Celtic have the option of making the move permanent at the end of the season if the 23-year-old Cameroon international impresses "We are happy to have him on board", Mowbray said. "He creates competition in a part of the field where we are a bit lighter than last year with Nakamura and Hartley moving on. "I am looking forward to working with him and seeing how he gets on." N'Guemo was glad of a chance to join the Parkhead side, saying: "I feel very happy. "I joined because Celtic is a big club and it was a pleasure to know that Celtic wanted me."
