Should Celtic return for Blackburn’s Bradley Dack?

Blackburn Rovers attacker Bradley Dack is attracting attention after a terrific start to the season.

Dack has scored eight goals in 10 games for Tony Mowbray’s side and Premier League teams are reported to be showing interest, including Tottenham, The Express claim.

Celtic are a side who showed interest in Dack in the past and may wonder if they have missed their opportunity.

The Mail reported Celtic were keen on Dack in 2016 when he was at League One side Gillingham.

Blackburn took a chance on him a year later and he repaid them last season with 18 goals in a promotion campaign.

The attacking midfielder is still just 24-years-old and is keen long term to test himself at another level.

Links with Tottenham can provide that, but Celtic should consider making a move themselves.

Brendan Rodgers’ side could offer the goalscoring midfielder a prominent role and the chance to enhance his reputation.

Dack could play Europa League football for Celtic, an attractive proposition for the Championship attacker.

The report valued Dack at just £2 million at the time, less than the money Celtic appear to have wasted on Kouassi Eboue.

Not moving appears to have been an error, but Celtic should not give up on making a more expensive move for Dack in January.
