Brighton defender Shane Duffy insists he's committed to his loan with Celtic.
Duffy had a heart to heart with manager Neil Lennon when he was dropped from the team for two games and feels indebted to the Celtic boss.
He said: “The manager is a big reason why I came here because of the faith he showed in me to try and get me here.
“He's been brilliant from the day that I walked into the club and gives you confidence.
“Listen, I wouldn't have put myself out the way he did.
“He's been great with me. He came around and he really cares about players and their emotions.
“He knows I was going through a tough time, I've really never had a manager like that before who would come around and care.
“How are you getting on in life? How are you handling it up here? It meant a lot to me and I'll always respect him for that.
“Hopefully, I can repay him with some wins."
There was even talk of Duffy's loan deal from Brighton ending early but he vowed that won't be happening, adding to the Scottish Sun: “I don't listen to that. I don't know where it has come from. I'm here.
“It would be a coward of me to leave without producing. It's not in me and I would never do that."
