What’s the story?
da dobrowin: The former Premier League midfielder has shown fantastic form since signing for Killie last November, a key part of the team’s incredible resurgence under manager Steve Clarke.
However, it appears his time in Ayrshire is coming to an end with bigger clubs circling for his signature.
The Daily Mail report that Celtic are one of those clubs keeping taps on his situation after the midfielder scored a winner against the Hoops in February.
With his contract set to expire at the end of the season, will Brendan Rodgers make his move for the DR Congo international?

Good enough for the Hoops?
There’s no doubting that Mulumbu has been a stand-out in the Scottish Premiership this season, his efforts catching the eye of many supporters up and down the country since arriving in Scotland.
However, the Celtic midfield is arguably the strongest area of Brendan Rodgers’ squad with many excellent players already vying for limited places in the starting eleven.
If it’s not Scott Brown then there’s Olivier Ntcham, with the likes of Eboue Kouassi, Stuart Armstrong and Callum McGregor all providing impressive back-up.
With plenty of top-tier experience, Mulumbu could play a role at Celtic Park but is unlikely to improve on the options currently available, making a move for the player one of luxury rather than necessity.
On a free transfer though, there’s little risk and this could be a potential move worth keeping an eye on.
