John Hartson believes Celtic will be getting 'screwed over' if they lose Odsonne Edouard for less than £30million.
Frenchman Edouard has been on Leicester City's radar for a while with former boss Brendan Rodgers reportedly hoping to get a deal done for around £18million.
The striker has netted 74 goals for the club over a three season spell and the Hoops hoped to rake in a hefty fee having spent £9million to bring him in from PSG - who will also expect a massive chunk of his eventual price thanks to a sell-on clause.
If Leicester get edouard for the reported 18m.. they will be getting a damn good player.. in today’s market he is at least £30m .. can’t help think Celtic being screwed over again.

And Hartson reckons Celtic will be losing out on a lot of cash if he does indeed go for as little as £18million because he says he's worth a lot more.
“If Leicester get Edouard for the reported £18m they will be getting a damn good player," the Hoops legend tweeted. "In today’s market he is at least £30m - can’t help think Celtic being screwed over again."
