Celtic likely to sign Serie A striker this summer
This would be a very interesting signing for Celtic
As per recent reports, Celtic have the opportunity to bring striker Kieron Bowie back to Scotland this summer transfer window.
Back in January, there were a number of reports linking the forward to the Hoops; however, he made the trip that several Scottish players have in recent years, moving to the Italian Serie A and signing for Hellas Verona.
Well, the opportunity to sign Bowie may have arisen once more. Indeed, as Football Insider reports, Celtic have been offered the chance to sign Bowie following Verona’s recent relegation to Serie B.
They state that he signed a 4 1/2-year contract with the Italian side, but the relegation has complicated matters, implying that they may need to balance the books this forthcoming summer.
Since joining in January, Bowie has featured 13 times for Verona, scoring four times, including a late equalizer against champions Inter Milan at San Siro last weekend. Not a terrible return considering how poor the side are as a collective.
Sadly for the forward, he has not done enough to be part of Steve Clarke’s squad for this summer’s FIFA World Cup, with the 26-man squad announced earlier today. A summer off would be handy for him, though, and perhaps Celtic too.
