According to The Scottish Sun, Celtic’s James Forrest has emerged as a surprise summer target for Premier League leaders, Liverpool, who value the Scotsman at £8m.
The 27-year-old is a key player for the Hoops and is currently having by far his best season in green and white – the winger has bagged eight goals and chalked up nine assists in 18 SPFL appearances and this has reportedly put him on the Reds’ radar, who likely see him as a good squad option.
Celtic are no strangers to selling their big stars on for a handsome profit, having offloaded Virgil van Dijk and Moussa Dembele for huge fees in recent years, but the Bhoys and Ghirls aren’t ready to let go of another so easily.
Many scoffed at the £8m fee being reported, with one fan suggesting that the Parkhead outfit accept nothing less than £30m for the speedster – almost as much as they received for van Dijk and Dembele put together.
