Celtic turn down a second offer from Southampton for centre-forward Gary Hooper.

Southampton have had a second offer for Celtic striker Gary Hooper turned down by the Scottish Premier League club.

The Saints' latest bid is believed to have been around £4m, but Celtic manager Neil Lennon has told his opposite number Nigel Adkins to forget about making a third offer.

"Southampton's valuation of the player and our valuation are some way off each other," Lennon told the Daily Record.

"I've no idea if they'll come back in for Gary a third time, but they'll get the same answer if they do. He's not for sale."

Celtic paid £2m for Hooper when they signed him from Scunthorpe United in 2010.
