Hamdi Salihi welcomes Celtic interest

Rapid Vienna striker Hamdi Salihi has admitted that he is flattered by speculation linking him with a move to Celtic.

Bhoys manager Neil Lennon recently admitted that he was keen on the 27-year-old, but revealed that he had yet to submit an offer.

"Celtic is a club with a great name," Salihi told the Austrian newspaper Kurier. "This could be a good step for my career.

"But I know nothing concrete. The deal would have to be right for all parties, including Rapid."

Salihi is an Albanian international.
