Celtic are reportedly keeping tabs on Wolves attacker Daniel Podence.

The 27-year-old is said to be a target of Brendan Rodgers this summer, as he aims to bolster his Hoops frontline.

The Portuguese star is believed to want to quit the Premier League side this summer after falling out of favour at Molineux.

And the Scottish Sun claims Celtic are ready to pounce if the right opportunity arises.

Podence - who played no part in Monday night's 1-0 Premier League opener loss against Manchester United - is valued at around £12million.

However, Celtic would not be willing to fork out that much on one player. 

With less than a year remaining on his deal, it would seem unlikely Wolves would receive that amount anyway.

Podence has been a success for Wolves, but he scored just six goals for the club last term. 

Real Betis and Everton has previously shown interest in his services, and there is expected to be major interest from other clubs too prior to the window closing in a fortnight.

Celtic sold Jota to Al-Ittihad in Saudi Arabid for £25m earlier this summer. While they have added wingers in the form of Yang Hyun-jun and Marco Tilio, Rodgers would like to strengthen that area of his team.

Meanwhile, Celtic could be without Reo Hatate for the next month.

The Japanese midfielder suffered what appeared to be a calf strain at Pittodrie on Sunday.

He was used as a second-half substitute in the Hoops' 3-1 win over Aberdeen, replacing David Turnbull at the break.
