He is one option Celtic are looking at in central defence – and Gustaf Lagerbielke is a star who can prove a perfect man for the Parkhead player-trading model.

With Carl Starfelt on the way out of Brendan Rodgers' side, Lennoxtown talent spotters have identified the Elfsborg centre-back as a man they want, with Xavier Mbuyamba at Voldenam another option.

But it's the Swedish deal that appears to be more advanced and a bid in the region of £3million has been launched. Swedish sources have told Record Sport that Celtic interest in Lagerbielke goes back weeks, with talks kicking off around one week ago.

A key business principle at Parkhead is buying low to sell high and Swedish football expert Anel Avdic, who broke the initial Lagerbielke story, insists the Scottish Premiership champions will turn a handsome profit down the line if they seal the deal for a future Sweden regular.
