Celtic are currently agonising over whether to keep Lewis Morgan for the remainder of the season or let him leave on loan.

But after signing Oliver Burke, Celtic should let Morgan impress away on loan and stake a claim for a first-team spot for the 2019/20 season.

Should Brendan Rodgers make Morgan available for loan, there will be a host of suitors trying to snap him up.

According to The Scottish Sun, five clubs are chasing the 22-year-old on loan for the rest of the season.

Scottish Premiership trio Hibernian, St Mirren and Aberdeen are all keen on Morgan, while English Championship pair Hull City and Nottingham Forest are also in the hunt.

Of all these options, Hull might be the best option for the Scotland international.

Firstly, it gives him a challenge in a new league and an unfamiliar environment will test whether he sinks or swims.

But more importantly, Nigel Adkins has demonstrated his ability to squeeze the best out of his wide players, making him the ideal boss for Morgan.

Hull have flown up the league table since their slow start and that is mainly due to the form of their wingers.

Jarrod Bowen is the star man at The KCOM Stadium with 14 goals already this season. It is no surprise to see the 22-year-old linked with Tottenham Hotspur, as per The Sun.

Kamil Grosicki has also impressed with four goals and six assists this season, while Evandro has three goals and three assists.

Morgan could take his game to the next level by playing under Adkins at promotion chasing Hull.
