Former Hearts defender Aaron Hickey admits he is trying to keep his focus on Bologna as speculation intensifies over a move to Celtic.
The left-back came through the club's academy and has been a long-term target for the Parkhead side even before he made the switch to Serie A.
And the 19-year-old turned heads during his debut season in Italy's top flight as his side secured a comfortable 12-place finish.
The Daily Mail reported on Thursday that Celtic are readying a £3m offer as Ange Postecoglou gets down to work ahead of pivotal Champions League qualifier.
And Hickey admitted earlier this week he himself knows all about the murmurings over a potential Parkhead switch.
Speaking on Scotland's National HQ show on Monday, he said: "I'm fully aware there has been interest. I can see it all.
"I've just got to keep my head down and keep full focus on Bologna now."
The defender burst onto the scene when he made his debut in the Scottish Cup Final at the age of 16 before Hearts allowed him to move on last summer.
