Out of style Oh Hyeon-gyu, a striker for Celtic, has been connected to a summer move to Genk, a team in Belgium. Since Brendan Rodgers replaced Ange Postecoglou as Celtic’s head coach last summer, the 23-year-old South Korean has failed to leave Parkhead with a lasting impact on the team. Adam Idah, who made an impression while on loan from Norwich City last season, was signed by Celtic for an estimated £2.5 million in January of last year. The club hopes to recover the majority of that cost and use it toward a possible permanent deal.
Celtic are on the hunt for new goalkeeper and Newcastle United stopper Martin Dubravka is the latest name to be attributed to the Premiership champions. The Slovakian is the Magpies’ No 2 behind Nick Pope and the 35-year-old will be allowed to leave St James’ Park this summer if Newcastle complete a deal for Burnley’s James Trafford.
Austrian defender Flavius Daniliuc has emerged as a transfer target for both Celtic and Rangers. The Old Firm duo are both keen to strengthen their options at centre-half and the 23-year-old, who is contracted to Salernitana in Italy but spent last season at RB Salzburg, has admirers in Scotland, according to Austrian media reports. Daniliuc is part of the Austria squad for Euro 2024 and is expected to have numerous suitors this summer.
After two warm-up games, Los Ticos’ playing pool for the Copa America will include Hearts attacker Kenneth Vargas, who made it through Costa Rica’s squad cut. Vargas, who signed a permanent contract with Costa Rica from SC Herediano at the end of the season, is now officially a member of Gustavo Alfaro’s squad. Costa Rica is in a group with Brazil, Colombia, and Paraguay.
