PAOK have reportedly made a move to sign former Celtic loanee Jonjoe Kenny, who is currently a free agent after leaving Hertha Berlin last month. [SunSport]
The right-back spent a short spell at Parkhead in 2021 during the second half of the Covid-hit season, arriving on loan from Everton. Despite being a regular starter under Neil Lennon, Kenny failed to make a lasting impact during a turbulent campaign for the club. Fans were glad to see the back of him when his loan expired. He was replaced by Josip Juranovic when Ange Postecoglou arrived at the club.
Now, with his contract in Germany expired, the Greek outfit are said to have offered the 27-year-old a deal as they prepare for their upcoming Europa League campaign. PAOK are looking to add experience and depth to their defensive options, and Kenny fits the profile of a player available without a transfer fee.
The move for Kenny comes as PAOK continue to pursue current Celtic left-back Greg Taylor. The Scotland international is weighing up a contract offer from the Greek side, with his current deal at Celtic set to expire soon. PAOK have reportedly put forward a two-year contract with the option of a third, which would exceed his current terms at Parkhead.
Taylor is yet to make a decision, with Celtic welcoming back Kieran Tierney this summer and a potential squad reshuffle on the horizon. PAOK have given Taylor until the start of their first pre-season camp at the end of June to respond.
