Released Celtic youngster, Alasdair Davidson, is reportedly closing in on a move to Dunfermline Athletic.

The defender has been training with Neil Lennon's side since the start of pre-season and has featured in all of their friendlies.

The Courier claims that Davidson is now 'poised' to sign with the Scottish Championship club.

The teenage central defender played ten times for Celtic's B side last season.

The three-year deal he signed with Celtic in 2022 expired this summer, and Dunfermline have moved quickly to secure his services.

Pars boss Neil Lennon said at the weekend [dafc.co.uk]: "We’re hoping to [sign him] yeah.

"We’re in the discussion with his agents at the minute, so I’m hoping that won’t take too long."

Dunfermline travel to face Heart of Midlothian this weekend as the group stages of the Premier Sports Cup commence.

It remains to be seen whether Davidson will be signed in time to feature.
