Celtic have accepted a “robust offer” for Jeremie Frimpong, after the full-back “made it clear he wanted to leave”, says manager Neil Lennon.
The 20-year-old Dutchman is currently abroad finalising the transfer.
He moved to Celtic Park on a four-year deal from Manchester City in September 2019 and has scored three goals in 51 appearances for the Glasgow club.
“The club received a very robust offer and we felt it was good business,” revealed Lennon.
“He made it clear to wanted to leave.”
Celtic paid around £300,000 for Frimpong, with Lennon refusing to divulge the identity of the bidding club and saying he did not know if Manchester City had negotiated a percentage of any future sell-on fee.
