Celtic plot late transfer for Sheffield Wednesday and Cardiff City target Jordan Rhodes - reports

Cardiff City look set to miss out on the signing of Jordan Rhodes, with the Sheffield Wednesday striker set for a move to Celtic, according to  Football Insider.

WalesOnline understood that City were in for the forward, with Neil Harris keen to bolster his attacking options on deadline day. However it now appears the Scottish giants are interested in his services.

Neil Lennon is thought to want forward cover and has turned his attentions to Wednesday star Rhodes.

Lennon's interest is understandable. Rhodes was once among the most prolific strikers in the country, with a phenomenal goal-getting record at Blackburn and Huddersfield.

He joined Blackburn in an £8million move eight years ago, but has seen his career dip more recently and the goals dry up.

However, Rhodes is still only 29 and it was thought Harris felt the front-man could give his Bluebirds the goal boost that has been lacking up top this season.

But it seems that will not be the case, with Rhodes now likely to head to Glasgow.
