Celtic have had great success bringing in young players to Celtic Park in recent seasons, no better example than the transfer of Moussa Dembele from Fulham last summer.

Brendan Rodgers has his eyes on another young forward according to the Mirror as they claim that Celtic are among clubs interested in signing Real Madrid forward Mariano Diaz.

Diaz has come through the ranks at the Bernabeu and has been promoted into the first-team in recent seasons, scoring five goals in 14 senior appearances last term.

However, the 23-year-old is eager to start playing regular first-team football and with the big names in place at Madrid, he’ll likely have to move on in order to secure it.

Tottenham, Lazio, Real Betis and Malaga are all also interested in the Spanish-born Dominican Republic international forward.

Diaz has 32 goals in 43 appearances for the Real Madrid Castilla side and is believed to be open to a move to the Premier League should it arise, but Celtic will look to pip Tottenham to his signature if reports are to be believed.
