Fox could be set to head South

Burnley are interested in bringing Celtic's left-back Danny Fox to Turf Moor, Press Association Sport understands.

The Scotland international's short spell at Parkhead will end if the clubs agree a fee and the 23-year-old thrashes out personal terms with new Burnley boss Brian Laws.

Fox was signed from Coventry for an undisclosed sum on a four-and-half-year deal in July and made his debut in the 5-0 Wembley Cup win over Egyptian champions Al-Ahly. He has played 23 times this season under Celtic boss Tony Mowbray and in November made his Scotland debut in the 3-0 friendly defeat by Wales in Cardiff.

The departure of Fox would signal yet another change to the Hoops' squad which has already lost Gary Caldwell to Wigan and Willo Flood, Chris Killen, and Barry Robson to Middlesbrough.

Thus far in the transfer window Mowbray has brought in Ki Sung-Yeung from FC Seoul, Jos Hooiveld from AIK Stockholm and 19-year-old Thomas Rogne on freedom of contract from Stabaek.

Celtic have also agreed a fee with Danish side Brondby for striker Morten Rasmussen who arrived in Scotland on Monday and is expected to complete his move following a medical.
