Celtic make final bid for Vakoun Issouf Bayo

Celtic have made a third and final bid in the region of £2 million for striker Vakoun Issouf Bayo, according to the Daily Star.

The 21-year-old has been a regular for Dunajska Streda in Slovakia’s top division and has already found the back of the net on 18 occasions this season in 23 appearances.

After the Hoops made an original bid of £1.75 million, it is believed that the club’s third and final offer is in the region of £2 million, the exact figure Dunajska Streda value the Ivorian.

Bayo also reportedly wants to make the move to Celtic Park, despite interest from Austrian outfit Rapid Vienna.

Manager Brendan Rodgers is looking to add to his attacking options in January, with the club announcing the loan signing of West Brom winger Oliver Burke on Saturday.

Paris Saint-Germain youngster Timothy Weah also remains on the club’s radar this month, with a loan deal until the end of the campaign thought to be close.
