Premier League cult hero seals shock reunion together with his former supervisor after spending two months and not using a membership

Former Celtic midfielder Victor Wanyama has sealed a reunion with Neil Lennon at Dunfermline.

The 33-year-old Kenya international played under the new Pars boss at Parkhead between 2011 and 2013, winning two league titles and a Scottish Cup and scoring in the famous Champions League victory over Barcelona in 2012.

He joined Southampton in 2013 for a reported fee of £12.5million and stayed on the south coast for three years before moving to Tottenham for a four-year stint.

Wanyama, who most recently played for MLS side CF Montreal before leaving in January, has signed on a deal until the end of the season, subject to international clearance..

Lennon was last week appointed boss of the struggling Championship side for the final seven fixture of the season with the remit of keeping them in the league.

Chosen by the Pars’ new American-based owners as the man to turn around the club’s fortunes after the disastrous appointment of Michael Tidser, the Northern Irishman was assured he would be backed financially before he committed to the job.

Dunfermline are six points clear of bottom club Airdrieonians and two behind eighth-placed Hamilton.

Lennon’s first game in charge on Saturday is intriguingly away to Ayr United, who are managed by his former Parkhead skipper Scott Brown
