Selling Sead Haksabanovic to Celtic could be one way out of the financial crisis facing Rubin Kazan, according to general director Rustem Saimanov.
Record Sport revealed on Wednesday lunchtime the Hoops had renewed their interest in the versatile winger with a potential move back on the cards. The Montenegro wide man is thought to be desperate to leave the Russian club despite signing a five-year deal last summer and his team are ready to grant his wish.
Previously on the books at West Ham, Haksabanovic wants a move back to western Europe and he fits Ange Postecoglou 's criteria of a young player who can cover in several positions. And Saimanov admits both he and Danish midfielder Oliver Abildgaard are up for sale amid a financial "crisis" - but won't be sold for buttons. A £6million price tag had been mooted for Haksabanovic but it's believed that has now been slashed.
