Celtic are interested in adding another centre-forward option to their squad during the summer transfer window, despite already bringing Callum Osmand in from Fulham.

Sky Sports journalist Anthony Joseph recently reported that the Hoops have made contact with Napoli to discuss a deal for Italy U21 international Giuseppe Ambrosino.

The 21-year-old marksman is said to be keen on a potential switch to Glasgow, which would be an initial loan move with the option for the club to make it permanent next summer.

However, the Napoli youngster is reportedly not the only striker on the radar of the Scottish Premiership champions, who are seemingly weighing up a number of options to potentially improve Brendan Rodgers' squad.

Celtic have an interest in LaLiga forward

The Hoops are said to have an interest in a former Premiership striker who is now plying his trade in one of Europe's major leagues, after leaving Scotland last year.

According to Macedonian outlet Gol Mk, Celtic's interest and love for Girona centre-forward Bojan Miovski is 'no secret', as they are one of the teams in the race to land the attacker.

The report claims that Hamburg and Freiburg have both lodged enquiries about a potential deal to snap up the 26-year-old marksman before the end of the summer transfer window.

It adds that there is a chance that there will be a battle, though, between Celtic and Rangers, who are also interested in him, to sign the left-footed number nine in the coming weeks.

Why Celtic should sign Bojan Miovski

The Hoops should swoop to sign the striker, who was signed from Aberdeen for around £7m last year, because he could be an even better option than Ambrosino for Rodgers in the 2025/26 campaign.

Whilst the Italian ace, at the age of 21, is a young talent who may have the potential to be a star for Celtic, he has yet to prove himself on a regular basis at senior level.

The Napoli forward has yet to make his Serie A debut and has only scored ten goals in 83 matches in the Serie B across various loan spells, which shows that the Celtic target would arrive with no guarantees that he can deliver consistently in front of goal.

Miovski, meanwhile, is a proven performer in the Scottish Premiership who could be reasonably expected to come in and hit the ground running as a huge goal threat for the Hoops.

The former Aberdeen star scored four goals in nine games against Rangers and three goals in seven outings against Celtic during his two-year stint in Scotland, which shows that he has the quality to deliver in the big games in the division.

As you can see in the table above, the left-footed consistently scored goals in the league, with 16 each in both of his seasons for the Dons, and scored more goals than he missed 'big chances'.

Pundit Kris Boyd described Miovski as a "refreshing" player because he is a goal-hungry forward who stays down the middle of the pitch to hunt goals, rather than looking to get involved all over the pitch.

That is backed up by his impressive goal return of 32 goals in 75 games in those two Premiership seasons with Aberdeen, and this is why he could be even better for Celtic than Ambrosino, who has only scored ten league goals in his entire career.

At the age of 26, Miovski is still in the prime years of his career and could bring almost guaranteed goals to the Celtic team, whilst the Italian striker would be a big gamble given his record at first-team level to date.
