Premier League side 'scout' Celtic star extensively with minimum fee set

There is already interest from Bundesliga outfit RB Leipzig, although Kuhn could be an option for English Premier League side Newcastle United, claims ChronicleLive

It is said that the Celtic man is an alternative to Nottingham Forest's Anthony Elanga, for whom they have been quoted a 'big price'. 

The Parkhead club are reportedly asking for a minimum of £15 million for Kuhn, with Newcastle scouts making several trips north of the border to watch him last season. 

Reported interest in the winger comes not long after transfer guru Fabrizio Romano gave Benjamin Nygren's move to Celtic his renowned 'here we go'. 

The Swede is believed to have signed a four-year deal at Parkhead, with the option of extending by a further 12 months. 

Celtic will pay Danish side Nordsjaelland £1.2 million for the services of the versatile attacker who scored 16 goals in 32 games last term.
