Celtic striker Hamdi Salihi seems to have paved his way for a move to Parkhead after admitting that a move to Scotland would be good for his career. Salihi is out of contract in the summer and could be available for as little as £500,000 if Rapid opt to cut short their losses in the current window instead of losing him of nothing next season.
Rapid have however indicated that Celtic have not made their interest in Salihi official yet. Salihi first caught the eye of Celtic scouts when he netted for Rapid against the Bhoys in the Europa League a couple of seasons ago. In that game Salihi was paired with Nikica Jelavic, who now plies his trade for Celtic’s arch rivals Rangers.
