Celtic starlet Rocco Vata is "in talks" with Italian side Bologna over a move to Serie A.
This is according to transfer guru Fabrizio Romano who claims that that the forward could move on in the January transfer window.
Vata's deal is up at Parkhead at the end of the season and the 18-year-old has been subject of interest from across Europe.
If he leaves at the end of the current campaign then the Hoops will pocket just £340,000 in compensation.
Vata has not made an appearance for the Celtic first team so far this season, instead featuring for the B team after previously making his debut under Ange Postecoglou.
And Romano claims Bologna, who have previously signed talent from Scotland such as Aaron Hickey and Lewis Ferguson, are heavily interested in the youngster.
Writing on X, he said: "Bologna are interested in Celtic 18 year old talent Rocco Vata as potential opportunity for the January transfer window.
"Talks expected to take place soon and more will follow as interest in Irish talent is now growing."
