Celtic have midfielder Niko Sigur back on their radar as a potential summer signing, according to a report.

The Hajduk Split star was linked with the Parkhead club months ago but things had gone quiet on that front.

Celtic are close to a deal to sign German midfielder Mika Baur from Paderborn, but with Reo Hatate and Arne Engels likely heading for the exit door, they are in the market for another midfield player.

The Daily Record reports that the champions' recruitment team have identified the 22-year-old as an ideal defensive midfielder to target.

It would require a significant seven-figure fee to persuade Hajduk to come to the table for the Canada interntional, who starred at the World Cup.

It is believed he has interest from other clubs in Europe but would be keen to team up with international teammate Alistair Johnston at Parkhead.

Celtic have also been linked with Torino's Lithuania international Gvidas Gineitis.

They are also close to a loan deal for a left-back and remain in the market for a goalkeeper.
