The summer has not been as full of Celtic transfer news as some fans would desire, but there have been some murmurs of moves here and there.

Frozen-out striker Oh Hyeon-gyu has been widely linked with an exit of late, while Luis Palma recently shut down talk of a potential Parkhead departure for him.

Regarding incomings, a few players have been linked with moves to Glasgow. Goalkeeper is high on the recruitment list this summer, as is centre-back.

With uncertainty over the futures of Matt O’Riley and Paulo Bernardo, it seems like midfield is being looked at, too.

Indeed, last week, Celtic were said to be tracking standout Dundee player Luke McCowan.

The 26-year-old was hugely impressive in the season gone by for Tony Docherty’s side, and the Dee boss has recently provided an update on his future, stating that talks are underway regarding a new contract for the midfielder, whose current deal runs until next summer.

“It is something we have discussed with him and we are in talks at the moment”, he said (The Scottish Sun).

“We are still in discussions with regards (to) that and we will see how it progresses.”

With 10 goals and five assists in the league alone for Dundee last season, it is no surprise that Celtic are looking at McCowan.

Although Docherty doesn’t want to lose his star man, he thinks the interest in him comes as a compliment.

He said: “There is speculation all the time. I take it and Luke should take it as a huge pat on the back for the season he had.

“The nature of the game is that when you are doing well you will attract suitors.

“He is going to attract attention but he is a Dundee player and that is the way things are.”
