Breaking News: BYE, BYE BENJI

The forgotten Hoops keeper didn’t make a solitary Premiership appearance in his two years at the champions after his arrival on a free from Dundee United.

Siegrist, who turned out in a couple of League Cup encounters, has opened talks with Hoops legend Neil Lennon as the club’s ex-boss prepares for his debut campaign in charge of Dinamo Bucharest.

The 32-year-old shotstopper has travelled to Romania in an effort to finalise the switch and the move could be confirmed this weekend.

Siegrist has made it clear he wants to leave the champions after slipping down the pecking order with Scott Bain the preferred option for Ange Postecoglou and Brendan Rodgers as back-up to Joe Hart, according to a report in the Daily Record.

The 37-year-old 75 times-capped former England international No.1 quit following the Scottish Cup Final victory over Rangers on May 25 as he picked up his seventh medal in his three years at the club.

Danish legend Kasper Schmeichel, also 37, has just signed a one-year deal to take over the first-team gloves and three times-capped Finland shotstopper Viljami Sinisalo has also arrived in a £1million five-year deal from Aston Villa.

The Celtic boss was searching for firepower after Hoops legend Henrik Larsson left the club at the end of his contract in the summer before moving onto Spanish giants Barcelona.

Fans clamoured for a replacement for the Swedish superstar and the spotlight fell on the Senegalese international. It was clearly an unfair comparison although Camara arrived with a pledge to the Parkhead fans he would take over the scoring mantle of their departing hero.

Quick and skilful, the frontman claimed eight goals from 26 appearances – including 12 starts – but failed to convince boss O’Neill who cut his temporary transfer short in January 2005 as he brought in Craig Bellamy on loan from Blackburn Rovers.

Camara returned to the Molineux club before moving again on a short-term contract to Southampton.
