In demand Vinicius Souza now faces a straight choice between Celtic and Fenerbahce, according to reports in Turkey. It comes as Lommel appear to have resigned themselves to losing the Brazilian this summer.
Ange Postecoglou is in the market for midfield reinforcements after losing Tom Rogic and Nir Bitton. Vinicius has been talked up as the ideal replacement and partner to Callum McGregor in the engine room.
So far Lommel have played hardball over the 23-year-old but a bid of £4.3m is expected to be enough to pry him away. That seems like a reasonable price given his age and contract status and while no clubs have yet come to the table with an acceptable offer, it seems the Belgian club are close to signing a replacement in 19-year-old Metinho.
