Vinicius Souza triggers Celtic transfer hope as Fenerbahce hit with 'negative response'

In-demand Vinicius Souza is set to lose a suitor after Fenerbahce were met with a "negative response" in their chase to land the midfield enforcer from Lommel.

And that could be good news for Celtic as they remain keen on the 23-year-old, who is also attracting interest from Dutch heavyweights Ajax and PSV. Souza has been putting the work in at Manchester City's training base in recent days, linking up with team-mate Diego Rosa in the process. Current employers Lommel are part of the City Group.

Reports on Saturday stated Fener had a £4.3m bid rejected, however, multiple updates in Turkey state the offer was in the region of £3.6m. But the bid from Jorge Jesus' side was not warmly received and now the Turkish media believe alternative midfield options will now be identified.
