Celtic have rekindled interest in Norway‑based striker Kasper Hogh, 25, after missing him in January. The Scottish club is again eyeing the 25‑year‑old Dane for a potential move.

Meanwhile, Tottenham Hotspur have set their sights on Celtic midfielder Arne Engels, while Japanese sources report that Kyogo Furuhashi, 31, is keen on a second stint at Celtic. He would need to negotiate a deal to leave Birmingham City, where he has two years of a lucrative contract remaining.

Celtic also received a significant boost in their quest to sign Radek Vitek, 22, from Manchester United, who is ready to leave Old Trafford. French winger Aaron Malouda has agreed to join Swiss side Basel from Sabah in Azerbaijan. Rangers are finalising a £4.6 m deal for Partizan Belgrade skipper Vanja Dragojevic ahead of Wednesday’s friendly with St‑Étienne.

Norwegian side Hamarkameratene are in talks to sign Aston Villa’s Scottish striker Rory Wilson, 20, on loan. This move would give the young forward valuable first‑team experience.
