Celtic have landed Everton’s Jonjoe Kenny on loan until the end of the season.
The 23-year-old full back has attracted interest from Premier League clubs this month but none were able to finalise a deal.
Burnley were among those looking at Kenny, who spent last year on loan at Schalke.

Celtic have moved quickly to land the former England Under 21 international after losing Jeremie Frimpong to Bayer Leverkusen.
Neil Lennon’s side are on a disastrous run of form and find themselves 23 points adrift of Scottish Premiership leaders Rangers.
Kenny leaves after finding game time hard to come by this season, having been reduced to just eight appearances in all competitions.
He could make his debut for Celtic when they travel to Kilmarnock on Tuesday.
