KV Oostende are keen to take up their option of making Jack Hendry's loan move permanent in the summer, however, his stay in Belgium could be short-lived.

According to sources close to Give Me Sport, the Jupiler Pro League side are looking to make the centre-back's deal permanent over the coming months.

They add a damning seven-word detail on the Belgian outfit's interest in the £8,000-a-week Hoops man; 'if only to sell him on quickly'.

Premier League interest in Hendry

Reports back in March suggested that up to eight Premier League sides have shown an interest in the Scotland international, with Oostende well aware of that situation.

It seems as if they'll therefore look to activate a clause to sign the player for around a reported £1.75m and could then move him on for bigger money fairly swiftly.

Transfer Tavern take

Celtic, in our view, will only have themselves to blame if they miss out on millions this summer.

The Hoops only signed Hendry, described as a 'leader', for £1.44m back in 2018, so they'll be in line to make just a £310,000 profit.

Hendry's Parkhead deal runs until 2022, so it's not as if the club were under major pressure to make a long-term decision last summer.

Oostende feel that they could sell the defender for £10m in the upcoming window, resulting in an £8.25m profit.

It remains to be seen if a move to the Premier League will materialise, but the Hoops may well be hoping it doesn't or they will certainly have egg on their faces.
