Sol is reportedly a target for the likes of Celtic, Rangers and Leeds United.
Celtic are just one of a number of teams reportedly interested in landing Willem II striker Fran Sol ahead of the January transfer window – and Hoops fans believe he is worth luring to Parkhead.
TeamTalk claim Celtic are rivalling Old Firm rivals Rangers and a number of English clubs for the 26-year-old’s signature, as he continues to shine in the top tier of Dutch football.
English Premier League sides Burnley, Cardiff City and Huddersfield Town are also keen, while Championship teams Leeds United, Middlesbrough, Derby County and Swansea City want the former Real Madrid striker.
Sol has been on fire for Willem, scoring 15 goals in 18 appearances this season. Despite his goals, Willem sit just two points above the relegation play-off places on 16 points in 13th.
The ex-Villarreal star’s contract is set to expire at the end of the season, and if Willem are to receive a cash sum for their star striker then it seems likely they will have to sell him to the highest bidder in January.
Celtic are in desperate need of a striker with Odsonne Edouard far from his best this season since joining Celtic on a permanent basis in the summer, while Leigh Griffiths is taking time out from football due to personal reasons.
Hoops fans believe Sol is worth the gamble and want to see their club win the race to land the Spaniard next month. One fan Tweeted: “We’ll have him, don’t let him go to Rangers.”
