Italian club slap massive price tag on key asset amid Old Firm transfer interest

Italian club Frosinone have slapped an enormous £18 million price tag on the head of Old Firm target Fares Ghedjemis.

The Algerian World Cup winger is the subject of serious interest from both Celtic and Rangers, with both clubs looking to strengthen their wide positions.

But their interest is almost certainly likely to end due to Frosinone's lofty demands for their 23-year-old star man.

Ghedjemis was Serie B's Player of the Season after he netted 15 goals last term. That prompted both Glasgow giants to make a move for Ghedjemis, who made one appearance at the tournament this summer against Austria.

His price tag would represent an enormous profit for Frosinone - they paid French club Rouen just £200,000 two years ago.

Monaco reportedly made a £6 million offer for Ghedjemis last week, plus add-ons, but it was nowhere near Frosinone's valuation.

He has two years left on his deal and was playing in the French amateur leagues just three years ago before his meteoric rise to fame.
