Celtic transfer news latest as Brendan Rodgers targets two key positions but striker would cost 'top dollar'

Celtic are poised to land Nicolas Kuhn as their first signing of the winter window - but Brendan Rodgers may not be done yet.

The halfway mark in the January transfer market is set to bring in Nicolas Kuhn from Rapid Vienna. A speedy winger, he is poised to complete a medical in London and a £3m deal on a four-and-a-half-year deal could be done as soon as today should all go well. He would join Luis Palma, Daizen Maeda, Marco Tilio, Yang and Mikey Johnston on the flanks, with boss Rodgers targeting two more players.

A goalkeeper has been a position that has done the rounds on social media. But it is a left-back and a striker, potentially on loan, that the Irishman wants next. Alexandro Bernabei has not provided sufficient competition for Greg Taylor at full-back while Kyogo is backed up in attack by one natural number nine at Celtic in Oh, who's at the Asian Cup.

One player who could be on the radar is Brondby's Mathias Kvistgaarden. He has been on the radar since the summer window but the Scottish Sun claim "his club are holding out for top dollar." A fee in the region of £8m may be needed too tempt the Danes into selling up.

Sydney van Hooijdonk - son of Hoops hero Pierre - is another linked with Bologna chances few and far between this season. He started the weekend's 2-1 defeat to Cagliari but told DAZN pre-match that exit rumours will persist until January is finished: "My future? I don't know, for me now the most important thing is this match, but I know that there has been a lot of talk about it.

"It will probably be like this in the next few weeks too, but I'm stopping focused on myself, because this is my chance. Now I want to score and win. Then we'll see how football goes, it's like this, in football
