Celtic are reportedly keen on landing Gwangju FC's Jung Ho-Yeon in January as the Scottish champions revisit the Korean market.

Brendan Rodgers has made an instant impact since returning to the Scottish Premiership and the Hoops appear ready to ramp up their recruitment strategy once again to extend their advantage at the top of the table - with Celtic already holding a seven-point lead over closest challengers Rangers.

The K-League market has proven successful the club in recent transfer windows with Yang Hyun-jun impressing after joining the summer from Gangwon, while Hyeongyu Oh joined from the Suwon Bluewings in January.

Kwon Hyeok-Kyu also joined from Busan IPark but has yet to make his debut for his new club following his summer arrival. Korean outlet FOOTBALLiST claim that the Parkhead scouts have shown an "interest" in the 23-year-old defensive-minded midfielder as they return to a familiar market.
