CELTIC were last night edging closer to an extra £1million summer windfall when it emerged their former midfielder Victor Wanyama was in talks regarding a move to Tottenham Hotspur.

Southampton have reluctantly accepted that the 24-year-old midfielder, in the final year of his contract, is moving on but would be looking for a bigger fee than the £11m fee which last season's Premier League runners-up have initially offered.

When Celtic sold the Kenyan captain to Southampton three years ago, they inserted a clause in his contract which meant they would receive a cut of any future deal, believed to be around 15 per cent, which would come into affect once the transfer goes through.

Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino, who bought Wanyama from Celtic, tried to get the player last year and had a bid of close to £20m rebuffed.

The fee this time around will be lower, despite Southampton digging their heels in, because he has only a season left on his current deal on the south coast of England.

It is believed talks have reached an advanced stage, there has been speculation it will be done and dusted over the next few days, and therefore Brendan Rodgers will have his transfer budget raised by at least £1m.

And that figure could rise even further if new Everton manager Ronald Koeman goes back to Southampton for Fraser Forster and Virgil van Dijk during this transfer window.

The Dutchman is expected to move for one or even both ex-Celts, who have similar clauses in their contract to that of Wanyama, and if even just one such deal came off, Rodgers would reap the benefit. A fee of around £20m would see either the goalkeeper of defender follow Koeman to Goodison Park.

Both Forster and Van Dijk signed long-term contract recently and it is thought that such deals were put in place in order for Southampton to demand the biggest price they can for their prized assets.

And so while nothing has been finalised yet, Celtic are potentially in line for an extra £3-£5m, which has been promised to Rodgers.

With Colin Kazim-Richards now gone and Carlton Cole expected to be released from his contract, the new Celtic manager has began the task of slimming down his squad.

And Emilio Izaguirre, who had said he would stay on despite having his place in the team taken by Kieran Tierney, may be on the move after six years in Glasgow.

The Herald:

Izaguirre's first club in Honduras, Motagua - where he spent seven years - have revealed they think they can sign him again.

Motagua assistant manager Hugo Caballero said: "Emilio has indicated to us he would be willing to sign for Motagua. He has the blood of this club in his veins.

"He is ready to play for us for the new season and it would obviously be an incredible signing.

"We'd love to see Emilio return to his home and we hope we can move this forward soon."

Izaguirre is due to return to Glasgow in a couple of weeks to start pre-season training again before Celtic head off to Slovenia for a series of friendly matches.
