Celtic face Andraz Sporar transfer battle as Dynamo Kiev prepare bid for Slovan Bratislava star

Celtic are set to face a transfer battle for Slovan Bratislava striker Andraz Sporar with Dynamo Kiev preparing a £3.5m bid.

Neil Lennon has admitted he is considering a move for the 25-year-old striker - who has 36 goals in 46 games in 2019.

And there have reportedly been talks between the Glasgow giants and the Slovakian club last week.

Slovan have indicated they are looking for a fee north of £5 million for Sporar from Celtic , but Dynamo Kiev want to test their resolve by coming in with a firm offer, at a lower price.

Kiev are desperate for new striking recruits as they trail runaway Ukrainian League leaders Shakhtar Donetsk by a massive 14 points after 18 games in the title race.

Former Rangers star Alexei Mikhailichenko is their boss for his second spell in charge of the club, having moved from sporting director to manager in August.

He's been promised money to spend next month and has identified Sporar as their main target.
