Josip Juranovic is keen on a move to Celtic, according to Sky Sports. The rumour linking the Croatian Internationalist with a move to Paradise is gathering pace after Legia Warsaw were defeated by Dinamo Zagreb in The Champions League Qualifiers last night sparking rumours of player sales to balance out the potential loss of European money.
The report states that the player is keen on the move and that any move for the ten-time Croatian Internationalist. The player would only cost £3m, which represents a great bit of business for an extremely capable option.

The player had made 40 appearances for Warsaw after joining from Hajduk Split in 2020. In that time, the Croatian full-back has made 13 goals for his teammates and scored 3 himself, earning praise for his crossing ability and powerful running.
Celtic are needing a new RB as a matter of urgency with just Tony Ralston available for Ange Postecoglou. The Scottish full-back has been impressive so far this season but he may not be the required standard moving forward, instead filling the gap as a vital squad player instead of a first-team regular. Ralston’s desire should be applauded as he has refused to back down from criticism levelled at him in the past.
Juranovic is an International quality full-back and someone that we should be targeting in the coming days. It would be a coup, so make it happen Celtic.
