Celtic transfer news bulletin as Kings Kangwa 'targeted' for £2.6m deal while Yang Hyun Jun trump card emerges

Celtic are reportedly interested in a deal for Red Star Belgrade midfielder Kings Kangwa as Brendan Rodgers kicks his recruitment drive up a gear.

The returning boss has his feet firmly under the table and completed the signing of Odin Thiago Holm earlier on Thursday with the 20-year-old penning a five-year deal. But it seems he's not satisfied with his midfield options there as The Guardian claim Kangwa is a target. The 24-year-old, who has been capped 15 times by Zambia and scored in their recent AFCON win over Ivory Coast, is said to be available for €3m (£2.6m).

It's claimed he is also being watched closely by Nottingham Forest, Fiorentina, Lille and Montpellier - with Premier League side Forest already "opening talks." Celtic of course aren't short of midfield options with Callum McGregor, Reo Hatate, Matt O'Riley, Aaron Mooy, David Turnbull and now new signing Holm all available but there remains a chance those options could slim down this summer.
