Three clubs in Hooiveld talks
The defender hasn’t featured in Neil Lennon’s side this season and joined FC Copenhagen on loan during the last transfer window.
All three Championship sides have expressed an interest in the Dutchman with Celtic keen to get the 28-year-old off the wage bill.
Over the last month Celtic have sent Niall McGinn, Darren O’Dea, Josh Thompson, Richie Towell, Daryl Murphy and Greig Spence out on loan with Hooiveld set to join that list.
Tony Mowbray paid AIK Stockholm £1.5m for the defender in January 2010 but his Celtic career never got off the ground.
AIK expressed an interest in Hooiveld during talks over the sale of Mohamed Bangaru but it’s believed that the defender wants to try his luck in England.
