Celtic have this afternoon been linked with a move for 19-year old Bayern Munich youngster Christopher Scott, according to reports from Sky Sports Germany.
As we get set to approach the business end of the season in April, this time of year is also when we start to see links in the media of players to Celtic, with the summer window rumours beginning to circulate ahead of next campaign.
That process appears to already be underway, with Sky Sports Germany reporter Florian Plettenberg reporting that the Hoops are in talks with 19-year old German and Bayern Munich midfielder Christopher Scott.
According to Plettenberg, Bayern are keen to sign the youngster who plays his football with the European giants B team up on fresh terms – whilst Scott is keen to explore his options in the hope of regular first-team football.

Both Celtic and English Premier League side Brentford have reportedly already held talks with Scott as they look to make an early summer move.

It would certainly be an interesting move to see the club sign the German u20 internationalist, with a number of players going the other way to join Bayern in the past.
For some, it would also potentially set down an early marker in the transfer window that Ange Postecoglou’s side are looking to continue their improvement quickly this summer.
