A few weeks into summer, Celtic remain in the hunt for a goalkeeper following Joe Hart’s retirement.
The English stopper left the Hoops on the most almighty of highs. He was serenaded in his last home game at Parkhead a week before keeping a clean sheet in a Scottish Cup final victory over Rangers which secured a domestic double.
Replacing Hart is perhaps the toughest job manager Brendan Rodgers has this summer, but it seems he has his sights set on two targets.
Peter Vindahl Jensen and Martin Dubravka have been increasingly mentioned over the past 24-48 hours. Now, Sky Sports’ Anthony Joseph reports that Celtic are interested in both as they look to replace Hart.
It is said that Dubravka will be allowed to leave Newcastle this summer, with the 35-year-old on the Scottish champions’ transfer shortlist alongside Jensen, who has just signed permanently for Sparta Prague in the Czech Republic for £1m after an initial loan spell.
Getting recruitment in the goalkeeping department spot on has to be a priority for Celtic this summer.
Hart’s antics in the season gone by showed just how critical having the correct figure between the sticks can be.
The veteran was nothing short of pivotal in the double success, and his successor must meet such levels.
