Leeds United, Wolverhampton Wanderers and Brendan Rodgers’s Celtic all have been linked with Abel Hernandez, who is leaving Hull City this summer following the end of his contract.

Hernandez is one of the best strikers in the Championship in England, and there is no surprise that there is so much interest in the 27-year-old.

According to Calciomercato.it, Scottish Premiership side Celtic are interested in the Uruguay international, who earns £40,000 per week as salary according to The Yorkshire Evening Post, while Leeds Live has claimed that Leeds and Wolves, who will play in the Premier League next season after winning automatic promotion from the Championship, want him.

Missing out?

However, it seems that Leeds, Wolves and Celtic could miss out on Hernandez to Turkish giants Galatasaray.

It has been reported by Fanatik that Galatasaray are prepared to offer the Uruguayan striker a three-year contract worth €2 million (£1.76m) a season, and will also use his international teammate Fernando Muslera to make the switch to the Turkish powerhouse.

Uruguay international goalkeeper Muslera, 31, has been on the books of Galatasaray since 2011, and he could be the secret weapon for Galatasaray to secure the services of Hernandez.
