Leon Best rejects the opportunity to move to Celtic from Newcastle United.

Celtic have failed in their attempts to sign Newcastle United striker Leon Best on loan.

Neil Lennon was reportedly looking to add a striker to his squad on Tuesday but Best rejected the opportunity to move to Glasgow.

Newcastle originally rejected a loan proposal as Alan Pardew's side preferred that any move was on a permanent basis.

Before Celtic could make a second bid to sign the former Coventry striker rejected the move.

It is believed that Best wants to fight for a place in the first team at Newcastle.
