Celtic have had contact from Torino over World Cup star Josip Juranovic, according to a report.
Ange Postecolgou snapped up the right-back in a deal worth around £2.5million last summer from Legia Warsaw and the defender has gone on to establish himself as a key man for the Hoops and on the international scene with Croatia. He's picked up trophy success at Parkhead, including a Premiership medal and also tasted Champions League football.
His club form has been transformed onto the international stage with the 27-year-old the standout performer in a quarter-final win over Brazil to send the then competition favourites crashing out in Qatar. They weren't able to replicate the success against Lionel Messi's Argentina in the last four but they will now play off with the chance of a third place finish.

It's thought Juranovic could leave Celtic as early as next month when the January transfer window opens with a host of clubs said to be keen on his services. Atletico Madrid and Real Sociedad have been named from Spain while English clubs are also likely to be in the running. The arrival of Alistair Johnston from CF Montreal has further fuelled the rumours of an exit from the Scottish champions and now respect journalist Gianluca Di Marzio has suggested Serie A could be his destination.
He claims Torino have held only 'preliminary talks' over a transfer, but a departure in the coming weeks is 'more concrete'.
Giorgos Giakoumakis has also been linked with a life-changing move to Saudi Arabia while Yuki Kobayashi has come in the way from the J-League.
The highly-regarded defender has penned a long-term deal at Parkhead alongside Canada's World Cup star Johnston.
