Fabrizio Romano confirms bids for Celtic-linked goalkeeper
Hákon Rafn Valdimarsson has been the subject of proposals from Aston Villa and Copenhagen, according to Italian football journalist Fabrizio Romano. Football Scotland had linked the Icelandic goalkeeper, who plays for Elfsborg in Sweden, on several occasions this month.
The transfer guru has acknowledged that offers have been made for the 22-year-old stopper, though, as his stock has increased.
Furthermore, according to Mark Hendry’s report from Football Scotland, Celtic won’t be considering Vadimarsson until the summer because they already have No. 1 Joe Hart in goal.
Given that Hart’s contract is expiring in the summer, it looks like Celtic will revisit the No. 1 spot at that time. Brendan Rodgers has stated that he will investigate this region, and Scott Bain and Benjamin Siegrist are not in contention.
Liverpool has been pursuing Kelleher, and Celtic has been keeping tabs on him. Rumor has it that the Merseyside club is open to splitting with the Ireland international. But considering the amount Liverpool would expect, a loan-to-buy agreement would be the most likely course of action.
