Brendan Rodgers is hoping to bolster his attacking options this month by providing competition to first choice striker Kyogo Furuhashi.

With only two days left in the January transfer window, Celtic is quickly running out of time to finalize any deals.

Despite securing the signing of winger Nicholas Kuhn from Rapid Vienna for £3 million earlier in the transfer window, manager Brendan Rodgers is actively seeking to acquire a new center forward to provide backup for key player Kyogo Furuhashi.

Additionally, with South Korean star Oh Hyeon-gyu currently away on international duty at the Asia Cup, Celtic is keen on reinforcing their squad. The team is also in search of a new left-back after missing out on Owen Beck, who returned to Dundee on loan despite being recalled by Liverpool earlier in the month.

Rangers, the Old Firm rivals, took advantage of the loan market earlier in the window by acquiring Portuguese youth international Fabio Silva from Wolves. Silva had been previously linked with a move to Parkhead.
