Inter Miami — owned by Manchester United legend David Beckham — made an approach for the former St Mirren winger.
Becks, 44, has ambitious plans for the club after getting an agreement for a swish new stadium in the Florida city.
And the Hoops agreed a six-figure fee with Morgan jetting back from Dubai to hold talks.
Now the Daily Record claim the 23-year-old has agreed a ‘lucrative deal’ to join the Florida side, who are about to begin their first season.
Morgan joined Celts in January 2018 after starring for St Mirren in the Championship.
He returned to Paisley on loan for the remainder of the 2018-19 season before joining Sunderland on a six-month loan deal after failing to break into the Celtic squad.
The Scotland international played in the League One play-off with the Black Cats last year before returning to Parkhead.
Morgan was used more under Lennon and started up top in the Betfred Cup final win over Rangers after netting a Europa League goal against Rennes.
Meanwhile, SunSport last night revealed that the Hoops are targeting Maccabi Tel Avic ace Yonatan Cohen.
The Israeli international, who plays wide left or as a second striker, has hit seven goals in his last six league games for the country’s biggest club.
And Parkhead recruitment chief Nick Hammond watched the 23-year-old in action during Maccabi’s 4-3 win over Maccabi Haifa.
