Scottish Sun has confirmed allnigeriasoccer.com's exclusive report that Glasgow Celtic are chasing the Nigeria left back Juwon Oshaniwa, who has been named in Nigeria's provisional African Cup of Nations squad.

The authoritative British newspaper says manager Neil Lennon could run the rule over Oshaniwa at the St Louis Stadium, Faro in the Super Eagles friendly against Cape Verde next Wednesday.

Oshaniwa is under contract with MS Ashdod until the summer of 2016. Before putting pen to paper with the Israeli club, the former Sharks left back was on the wishlist of clubs in Belgium and France.

He has played 14 matches from start to finish for MS Ashdod in the Israeli top flight
