Neil Lennon was last night homing in on giant Congolese defender Cedric Mongongu as his second major summer signing.

The Celtic boss has stepped up his efforts to land the £1.5million-rated centre-back from French side Evian and hopes to add him to last week’s capture of Guinea-Bissau born striker Amido Balde.

Mongongu, who is 6ft 2in, has gained a reputation as a no-nonsense defender after breaking through as a 17-year-old at Monaco six years ago.

The DR Congo international – who has 10 caps – played 79 games in the Principality before moving to Evian in 2011.

Kenyan international midfielder Victor Wanyama has revealed he could leave his club Celtic in the summer.

The 21-year-old Celtic icon revealed there are on-going negotiations about his future and he could leave the Scottish champions.

Wanyama is presently with the Kenyan National team for the 2014 World Cup Qualifiers, they lost at home to the Super Eagles of Nigeria 1-0 in Nairobi last week which saw him in injured, which makes in doubt his presence for Wednesday's game against Malawi.

In an interview with Kenya's national television, NTV, the midfielder admitted he remains a Celtic player but will move should he get good offers coming that suits both Celtic and himself.

Nigeria stars Ogenyi Onazi and Efe Ambrose won the cup in Italy and Scotland respectively on Sunday.

Ogenyi Onazi’s Lazio defeated bitter city rivals Roma 1-0 to clinch the Coppa Italia, while Celtic, parading Nigeria defender Ambrose, won the league and cup double after they trounced Hibernian 3-0 in Sunday’s cup final.

Senad Lulic’s strike 20 minutes from time means Lazio will feature in next season’s UEFA Europa League.

For Celtic, it was their first league and cup double since 2007.

Nigeria international Efe Ambrose told MTNFootball.com that winning the league and cup double with Celtic in Scotland was a dream come true.

Celtic midfielder Victor Wanyama has been named as the Clydesdale Bank Young Player of the Season.

The Kenyan, in his second year with the Scottish champions, failed to win a monthly award in the league this campaign but has been recognised for his consistent performances across the campaign.

Wanyama joins Motherwell boss Stuart McCall and Hibernian's Leigh Griffiths in winning the annual awards, with the latter pair having been named as Manager and Player of the Season respectively.

Also nominated for the PFA Scotland Young Player of the Year award, the 21-year-old lost out to Griffiths in the union's prize.

Celtic have taken French defender Steven Mouyokolo, who's eligible for Congo, on trial.

The 26-year-old centre-back has been handed an opportunity to impress Neil Lennon and his coaching staff and has been training with Celtic's first team squad at their Lennoxtown complex.

Mouyokolo, who is a free agent after his contract with Wolves was terminated by mutual consent in January, counts Hull City and Sochaux among his former clubs.

The player began his career with Chateuaroux in French Ligue 2 before spells at Guegnon and Boulogne.

Victor Wanyama thinks he will still be a Celtic player next season.

The Kenya midfielder has been tipped to move to a richer club since starring in Celtic's Champions League group-stage win over Barcelona.

And manager Neil Lennon has admitted he might struggle to keep his top players despite back-to-back title wins.

But Wanyama, who has been nominated for the PFA Scotland young player of the year award, said: "I love it here at Celtic, so I'll be here next season."

In October, Lennon revealed that Wanyama had rejected the offer of a new contract beyond the four-year deal he signed when joining Celtic for £900,000 from Beerschot in July 2011.

It was the African Show as Nancy beat Evian TG 3:1 in the French top-flight on Sunday.

All goals in the tie were scored by African players with Cameroon striker Benjamin Moukandjo Bile striking twice to seal the win for Nancy after compatriot Paul Efoulou had opened scoring.

Tunisia striker Saber Khelifa netted the consolation goal for visitors Evian TG. It was his tenth goal of the season.

Khelifa's international team-mate Wahbi Khazri netted his seventh goal of the campaign for Bastia, but it proved only a consolation as visitors Lille stormed back to win the tie 2:1.

Nigeria duo Gabriel Reuben and Papa Idris have followed similar paths to the Scottish Premier League, shining at Kano Pillars before switching to Kilmarnock in March.

Reuben, 22, is a disciplined midfielder whose biggest strength is his ability to break down oppositions play.

He was a member of the Super Eagles squad that won the Africa Cup of Nations in February but he was prevented from playing after being struck down by chicken pox.

Central defender Idris, 23, has also played for the senior team but he too missed out on the success in South Africa, because of injury.

Kilmarnock manager Kenny Shiels has confirmed the arrival of Nigeria internationals Gabriel Reuben and Papa Idris on three-year contracts.

STV understands the Rugby Park side have gained work permit endorsements from the Scottish FA for the pair, who are both free agents having left Kano Pillars earlier in the season.

Defender Idris, 23, has been capped three times by his country while midfielder Reuben, 22, was in the Nigeria squad for the recent Africa Cup of Nations.

And speaking to STV, Shiels said: “They’ve both signed and we’re just waiting on some last-minute paper work on Papa Idris but everything is through for Gabriel Reuben.

Flying Eagle Abdul Jeleel Ajagun has revealed that the Egyptian giant Al Ahly has started negotiations with him to sign him.

Ajagun and his teammates lost their semifinal match against Egypt 0-2 at African Youth Championship on Tuesday.

Supersport.com spoke with Ajagun who said : "Al Ahly official Magdi Tolba talked with me and asked me if I want to play for Al Ahly and I said yes".

"I have not signed any contracts yet , but it looks good. We are waiting to see what will happen from them".
