Lorenzo Amoruso reckons Celtic would be English Premier League champions in just two years if they moved south.
And the one-time Rangers captain insists his former club would also be challenging.
The Old Firm have eyed a move to English football over the last few decades, although they have both received very little encouragement from down south.

But the teams in England fighting for European places always fought against it. “Everyone knows they would both be incredibly successful because they have an incredible number of fans.

“When I was at Rangers, I had a following of thousands and thousands of fans.
“In my opinion, both clubs have an unbelievable untapped potential.”
