Celtic will be made to wait if they want to land Mohammad Abu Fani this summer, according to a report. The midfielder will be allowed to leave Maccabi Haifa for the right price in this window but the Isreali side are in no rush to cash in.
Record Sport revealed Ange Postecoglou is among a host of managers with the 24-year-old midfielder on their radar and that interest doesn't appear to have cooled this summer, with Celtic, Eintracht Frankfurt, Royal Antwerp and Standard Liege reportedly chasing a deal. Isreali outlet Sport 5 state that Maccabi Haifa are expecting offers but won't let him leave before the end of July.
That is because the club want to keep their key man at the club for the round Champions League qualifying double header against Olympiacos as they push for the group stage. It is noted that Celtic were reportedly impressed with Abu Fani's performance in the Nations League clashes with Albania and Iceland, where he played alongside Israel teammate Liel Abada.
