Wolves defender Matt Doherty has responded to a message shared by Celtic star and Ireland teammate Adam Idah.
Idah fired Brendan Rodgers’ men to Scottish Premiership glory last term by scoring 13 goals in 35 top-flight appearances.
The former Norwich City man also helped Celtic on their way to winning the Scottish League Cup by notching two goals in four outings in the competition.
Meanwhile, fellow Ireland international Doherty made 30 Premier League appearances as Wolves finished 16th after establishing strong form under Vitor Pereira.

Despite their shock Scottish Cup final defeat to Aberdeen via a penalty shootout on 24 May, Rodgers’ men enjoyed a largely successful campaign, finishing 17 points clear of bitter rivals Rangers.

But the Gers are set to mount a more serious title challenge next season following the takeover overseen by 49ers Enterprises, and have signed the likes of Norway international Thelo Aasgaard from Luton Town.
To beat Russell Martin’s men to Scottish Premiership glory next season, Rodgers’ side will have to be at their very best, particularly in their Old Firm clashes.
Meanwhile, as they look to retain their title once more, Celtic want to sign Louie Barry from Aston Villa to bolster their forward ranks.
Barry proved clinical during his loan spell with Stockport County last season, scoring 16 goals in 24 appearances for the Greater Manchester side.
But Celtic can also count on Idah to produce the attacking goods once again and help them beat Rangers to the league title.
