Celtic are reportedly interested in Robert Gumny.

Poland sensation Robert Gumny is fully fit again after injury halted his prospects of a departure in January.

Polish publication Gazeta Wyborcza reported that Celtic were interested in the right-back and claimed to be lining up a £4.3 million move.

Celtic signed Jeremy Toljan instead on loan, a short term solution.

Right-back will remain a priority in the summer, with Mikael Lustig needing to be replaced.

Polish outlet Przeglad Sportowy today report Gumny is looking to leave Lech Poznan this summer as he feels he is ready to test himself abroad.

It is claimed Poznan are looking for eight million Euros (£6.8 million).

This is still within Celtic’s budget, but it is unclear if they are willing to spend so highly on one position.

Gumny could be worth it. He was named on UEFA’s list of top 50 players aged 20 and under earlier this year Przeglad Sportowy report, and has big resale potential.

The report adds that clubs in England, Germany and Italy are interested, so Celtic will face competition for his signature.
