Celtic have reportedly made an informal bid for Dominik Livakovic. The Croatian international is currently in Germany with the national team after an impressive first season at Fenerbahce, where they finished second.
According to Football Insider, Celtic are considering Livakovic as a replacement for Joe Hart. The report, which cites sources, claims that Celtic have offered £7.6 million for the player.
More significantly, the report suggests that the clubs have engaged in extensive discussions about the deal, with a formal offer potentially forthcoming. Celtic have been searching widely for a new goalkeeper to replace Hart, and Livakovic has been repeatedly linked with the club.
Football Insider’s transfer stories can be hit or miss, and this could be speculation following reports from Turkey linking Celtic with a return for the 29-year-old.
The former Zagreb captain left Croatia last season for Turkey but might be tempted by a move to Scotland. He would have the opportunity to play in the Champions League and compete for trophies.
Livakovic could become available if new Fenerbahce manager Jose Mourinho decides he needs another goalkeeper. However, it is likely that Mourinho will want to evaluate his squad during pre-season before approving any departures.
