Stuart Armstrong is a favourite of the Celtic support after what he achieved at the club following a move from Dundee United. He won eight trophies including four titles between 2015-2018 and played his part in an invincible Treble won by the Hoops during Brendan Rodgers’ first spell at charge, leaving for Southampton and since turning out for Vancouver Whitecaps plus Sheffield Wednesday.
Armstrong has departed the Owls as a free agent but the US-backed Wrexham could spend big as they look to cement themselves in the Championship after promotion from League One. Amid issues over wages at Sheffield Wednesday, Alan Nixon has claimed that Armstrong plus Celtic diehard and ex Scotland midfielder Barry Bannan could end up in Wales.
He stated: “Skipper Barry Bannan, 35, is one of many who could leave if the Owls fail to pay his late wages. Wrexham are tracking developments and can afford to pay a top salary. The Robins are also interested in midfielder Stuart Armstrong, 33, who is a free agent after a short spell at Wednesday.”
