The report from SunSport adds a new layer to the competition for Lagerbielke’s signature, with both Lecce and Heerenveen already known to be in pursuit this week.

Lagerbielke, 24, has been made available by Celtic, and his future could be decided in the closing days of the transfer window.

Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers has publicly acknowledged that Lagerbielke is likely to depart, praising his professionalism and expressing gratitude for the opportunity to coach him despite the defender not fitting into his plans to CeltsAreHere on Friday.

There will be a lot of business taking place at Celtic Park before the end of the window, with a lot of incomings and outgoings expected before the Friday deadline.

It just hasn’t worked out for the Swede defender at Celtic, hopefully, he can reignite his career elsewhere.
