Celtic's 'top priority' for January window revealed

Celtic's 'top priority' for the January transfer window has been revealed.

The Parkhead side recently brought Portuguese winger Jota back to the club on a five-and-a-half-year deal, although their prime concern is to land a new striker before Monday's deadline, reports bold.dk.

They also claim that the Scottish Premiership champions remain very much 'on the ball' in the hunt to sign Brondby's Mathias Kvistgaarden this month, although the Danish side are said to have made 'huge demands' to any potential suitors of the 22-year-old.

Kvistgaarden has been in fine fettle in Denmark this season, netting 14 goals and assisting a further four across 22 appearances in all competitions.

He is a long-term target of Celtic, although it appears Brendan Rodgers' side will have to shell out a hefty fee if they are to bring him to Glasgow's east end this month.

The club remain in the market for a striker with five days left of the January transfer window.

Kyogo Furuhashi departed for Rennes on Monday, with Rodgers eager to sign a number nine to replace the 30-year-old Japanese frontman before the close of business.
