Rodrigo Riquelme in Celtic transfer link as Hoops 'enquire' about Atletico Madrid wonderkid

Celtic are keen on a move for Atletico Madrid wonderkid Rodrigo Riquelme, according to reports in Spain.

The youngster has one year left on his deal with Diego Simeone's side, but is weighing up his options as he looks for first team football.

And Mundo Deportivo claim Celtic are one of the clubs who have enquired about the Spanish winger, with Real Betis also in the frame.

Atletico want to tie him down on a long-term deal and are willing to send him out on loan for the upcoming season so he can get some playing time under his belt.

Riquelme was a standout perfomer when Atletico faced Rangers in the UEFA Youth League last term.

Neil Lennon is looking to bring attacking reinforcements to Parkhead during the transfer window.

The Hoops reportedly had a £5million bid rejected for Peterborough striker Ivan Toney.

Celtic also looked to be on the verge of signing Albian Ajeti on loan from West Ham, but talks have stalled in the past 24 hours.

One player who will be joining the club is AEK Athens keeper Vasilios Barkas who arrived in Glasgow on Tuesday night to finalise his £5m move to the Premiership champions.
