Celtic ready to make move for Moore

Celtic are ready to make a move for Reading defender Liam Moore in the January transfer window.

According to the Daily Record, Brendan Rodgers is a big fan of the central defender and has placed Moore at the top of his wishlist.

Rodgers is keen on strengthening his defence at Celtic and sees Moore as someone who can come in and add to his defensive options.

Moore has been in impressive form for Reading in the English Championship this season and has caught the eye of Rodgers.

The report claims that Moore is valued at £5m, with Celtic ready to make a move when the next transfer window opens in just over a month’s time.

The former England under-21 international joined Reading from Leicester in the summer of 2016 and signed a four-year contract with The Royals.

Moore can line up at right-back or centre-back, making him a versatile option – as well as having quality to improve Celtic.
