Celtic are reportedly 'nearing' a move for Bodo/Glimt striker Kasper Hogh.
The 25-year-old Danish forward looks set to take a step towards joining the Scottish champions once Daizen Maeda officially leaves the club.
Celtic had shown interest in Hogh in January but were deterred by the increased asking price following Bodo/Glimt's Champions League progress.

Danish media outlet Campo has reported that Celtic are “trying to finalise” a move for the 25-year-old, with the player and club both having held talks with the Scottish champions.
Hogh's move looks more likely after he was benched for the league game against HamKam, despite being Bodo/Glimt's top scorer. Andreas Helmersen was chosen to lead the attack instead.
Bodo/Glimt manager Kjetil Knutsen said the absence was down to his team deciding to rest Hogh, however, Norwegian reports indicate the Denmark international is keen on a move to Glasgow’s East End.
