Celtic are believed to be running the rule over two Premier League wingers but should they sign Podence instead of Fraser if it's a choice between the two?
That's the view of Derek Riordan who feels the Wolves winger would be a "brilliant" signing for the Parkhead club. And the former Parkhead and Hibs striker also believes a lack of progress across the city at Rangers could make it a long season for Michael Beale in his team in their bid to wrestle the title back off the Hoops.
But if it's a choice between the two, Riordan reckons it's a no-brainer. Though he does believe his wage at Wolves, estimated to be around £60,000 per week, could be a stumbling block. He told Glasgow Live: "Podence would be a brilliant signing. I think he would be really good in Scotland. I don't think they need Fraser. They've already got Liel Abada out on the right side. is an Abada-type player but I think Podence is excellent.
Either way, Riordan only sees the title race this season going one way. The former striker, who spent two years at Parkhead between two spells at Hibs from 2006-2008, went on: "I caught the end of the Celtic game on Sunday . I still think they are stronger than Rangers. It will take a wee bit of time for all the players to bed into how Brendan Rodgers wants them to play.
