Liam Moore is reportedly back on Celtic’s radar [The Daily Record].

The Reading centre-back has been linked with a move to Parkhead a few times over the past couple of years.

But it might genuinely have legs on this occasion because Celtic are definitely in the market for another centre-back.

The 27-year-old has been a real mainstay for the Championship side in recent seasons, starting a minimum of 40 league games in three of the past four years.

But it looks like Royals fans aren’t all that bothered if he winds up at Celtic. Here’s how they’re reacting to the speculation on Twitter:

Shane Duffy is also said to be on Celtic’s wishlist and, if we’re honest, the Irishman is a far better option.

Duffy, born in Derry, is only a year older but has a lot more experience and know-how, given his time with Brighton in the Premier League.

And considering Moore would cost a reported £4.5 million, perhaps focusing on Duffy is the best choice for the Bhoys here.
