Celtic eye Liverpool's Michael Ngoo?

Celtic are reportedly interested in signing Liverpool centre-forward Michael Ngoo.

The 20-year-old, who is yet to represent Liverpool at senior level, joined Scottish Premier League side Hearts in January on a six-month loan basis.

Having scored two goals from eight appearances, Celtic manager Neil Lennon has been impressed with what he has seen from Ngoo, according to The Scotsman.

The report went on to claim that Liverpool would consider parting with the England youth international for a fee in the region of £2m.

It is believed that Lennon has identified Ngoo as a replacement for Gary Hooper, who has been tipped to leave Celtic during the summer.
