Last updated : 17 December 2003 By Mad Reporter
The former Black Cats skipper is currently on loan at the Scottish club but with that deal due to expire at the end of the month Gray is to enter talks into the possibility of remaining north-of-the-border.

"I'll go and see the manager over the next couple of weeks and hear what he has to say. I'm enjoying myself here though and long may it continue," he told the official Celtic website.

"I knew it was going to be difficult when I came here. It's a huge squad of players who are experienced at the highest level and I never envisaged that I'd walk right into the team.

"It has always been a case of knuckling down, working hard and doing what I can to win my way into the side.

"I've started a few games and have come on from the bench and I've been reasonably happy with how it has gone."
