MYSTERIOUS: Neil lennon explains kyogo celtic to tottenham doubts as he labels kieran tierney return long shot - What They Never Told You

Neil Lennon has expressed doubts over whether Kyogo Furuhashi could cut it at Tottenham as he labelled a Kieran Tierney return to Celtic as a 'long shot'.

The former Hoops gaffer has previously expressed how big a fan he is of the Japan international, who netted 34 goals in all competitions for the Scottish champions last season. Ange Postecoglou's move to North London has sparked chat over a potential reunion for the duo with Lennon certain he would NOT replace Harry Kane if that was to be the case. He is a big fan and believes he could play in the English Premier League - just not at the top end at this moment in time.

Speaking to Mail Sport, he said: "I have my doubts, yes. I don't think for one minute that he could replace Harry Kane, for example, if that was to be the case. He's a good player. I like his style. I'm just not sure he could play consistently at the highest level in the Premier League on a week-to-week basis.
