Belgian top-tier side KRC Genk have made an initial bid for Celtic striker Oh Hyeon-gyu, according to a report from hbvl.
It is said that they want to bring the 23-year-old in as soon as possible and that he is at the top of their to-do list this summer.
Oh himself is keen on the move. He is eager to work with Genk boss Thorsten Fink, the man who played a key role in the development of his fellow countryman and now Spurs star Heung-min Son.
It remains to be seen how much Oh will go for, but his market value currently sits at 1.8m euros as per Transfermarkt.
Brought in by Ange Postecoglou midway through his second season in Glasgow, the South Korean did show some signs of promise in Hoops but never gained any consistency.
His goals-per-minute ratio was always impressive but when it mattered, he either wasn’t trusted or never stepped up.
Oh’s potential departure marks the beginning of what is set to be a summer of change at Celtic. Several players can be classed as ‘deadwood’ and need to move on, the big centre-forward being one.
