The season is far from over, yet Celtic are being linked to potential summer targets.
One name that has recently emerged in connection with the Hoops is Eduard Spertsyan, the Krasnodar and Armenian national team playmaker.
Despite previous reports suggesting a possible move to Celtic, Mark Hendry has provided an update indicating that Krasnodar have not received any communication from Celtic regarding the 23-year-old.

Spertsyan, who has become a key figure for both his club and country, was previously linked with a £13 million move to Newcastle United, as well as interest from Ajax. However, it appears that his market value has seen a significant adjustment, prompting rumours of Celtic’s interest.
With two years remaining on his current contract and having already made a mark as the youngest-ever Armenian player to feature in the Champions League, Spertsyan’s profile fits the mould of the high-potential talents that Celtic often seeks to recruit.
Despite the lack of direct contact from Celtic, the news that an unnamed Belgian club has made inquiries about the attacking midfielder may prompt further speculation about his future. Celtic’s scouting network identifies talents across various leagues, and Spertsyan’s capabilities as a playmaker could potentially add a new dimension to the team’s midfield.
