The summer transfer window officially opened for business just over two weeks ago and Celtic are still searching for their new number one for next season.
Brendan Rodgers lost his first-choice goalkeeper at the end of May after Joe Hart officially retired from professional football upon the expiry of his contract.
The former England international enjoyed three years at Parkhead and won the Scottish Premiership title in each of those three campaigns before his departure this summer.
Hart’s exit from Glasgow has left a gaping hole between the sticks for the Bhoys ahead of the 2024/25 campaign and it is one that they must fill before the opening match against Kilmarnock.
First five games
The Bhoys have already been linked with Newcastle United’s Martin Dubravka, Belgium international Koen Casteels, Burnley’s Arijanet Muric, and Aston Villa’s Viljami Sinisalo.
Despite all of these established links, the Scottish giants have been urged to pursue a goalkeeper who has been in sensational form at the 2024 European Championship in Germany.
Celtic urged to pursue Euros star
Former Premier League shot-stopper and current pundit Paul Robinson has tipped the Premiership champions to enter the race for Valencia star Giorgi Mamardashvili, speaking to Football Insider.
The retired goalkeeper has named the Georgia international as someone the club should target if they decide to “push the boat out” and splash cash on a new number one.
The ex-Blackburn Rovers man adds that he could see Celtic “hijacking” Newcastle United’s interest in the left-footed colossus, as the Premier League side are interested in a deal to sign him.
It was recently reported that Valencia are looking for a fee in the region of €35m (£30m) to allow their star stopper to depart, with Bayern Munich and Chelsea also said to be eyeing him up.
