Celtic "need" to do business in the January transfer window in terms of signing a striker.
This is according to Falkirk midfielder Stephen McGinn who feels that Sydney van Hoojdonk is a player who could succeed at the Hoops amid reports linking him with a move to Parkhead.
Kyogo Furuhashi, Daizen Maeda, Oh Hyeon-gyu and Reo Hatate are just some of the players who could be unavailable for the Scottish champions during January if they are selected to represent their countries at the Asian Cup.
And McGinn, who was a fan of Bologna striker Van Hooijdonk while he was a player-coach at Hibernian, revealed the Easter Road side could have signed the Dutchman.
Speaking to Go Radio, he said: "I think Celtic need to do business with Oh and Kyogo potentially not being available.
"He's a name, the year I was at Hibs in the Covid season, I had a split-role with my relationship with Jack Ross doing player-coaching and he's one that came up in the recruitment meeting.
"You are going through all them and you watch and there was no doubt he'd scored a number of goals for NAC Breda.
"We weren't able to fly out to see them play, the outlay on it was quite big, Kevin Nisbet had just signed in the summer and he was flying.
"I think the circumstances, had it maybe been in a normal season, he would have been someone we might have gone for.
"But you are worried about bringing someone into the country, can't go out with any of the boys, need to stay in a flat, go from training ground to flat, the difficulties of that.
"Now in hindsight you see the success, and wish you had just done it.
