Celtic are preparing to go all out for Scotland striker Kieron Bowie, though Bologna sit in pole position for the 23-year-old. Hellas Verona have set a £13m valuation amid Serie A interest from Cagliari and Sassuolo. Simultaneously, the Hoops have lodged a £3.4m bid for Real Oviedo winger Haissem Hassan, 24, who featured for Egypt at the World Cup, though his release clause stands at £10m. Manager Martin O'Neill also confirmed pursuit of Kelechi Iheanacho, 29, and left-back Marcelo Saracchi, 28, currently on loan from Boca Juniors.

Rangers hold an advantage for Tromso midfielder Jens Hjerto-Dahl, 20, who says a move to Ibrox appeals more than interest from Besiktas. In London, Borussia Dortmund want former Rangers loanee Mikey Moore, 18, on loan with an option to buy, but Tottenham are reluctant to sanction a permanent exit for the winger.

Hearts forward Claudio Braga, 26, has attracted a three-way tug of war. Newly promoted Ipswich Town and Turkish side Trabzonspor have joined Lyon in expressing interest, potentially sparking a bidding war for the Tynecastle attacker.
