Luke Donnelly has found it tough to break into the Celtic first-team and is yet to make a senior appearance for the Hoops.

The 21-year-old spent the first half of the season on loan with Alloa where he made nine appearances, scoring one goal.

And the striker has now been sent out to Scottish Championship side Greenock Morton for three months to earn more first-team experience.
