Reports this morning have suggested that John Hughes is in the frame to become manager of Celtic's new colt team.

Yogi departed Ross County this summer after keeping the Staggies in the Scottish Premiership.

He had been linked with the vaccant Dundee United job after Micky Mellon departed, but the Daily Record now say that he could join his former side Celtic.

Both the Hoops and Rangers have been given the green light to include colt sides in the Lowland League from next season.

The plans would see both teams blood their young players in the fifth tier of Scottish football for one season only but not be eligible for promotion into Scottish League Two.

Hughes starred for Celtic in 1995/96, and has also taken charge of Falkirk, Raith Rovers, Inverness Caley Thistle and Hartlepool during his time in management.
