Celtic have been linked with a move for Cristian Stuani.

The striker was part of the Girona side that has just been relegated from La Liga and is believed to be rated at £6m.

Neil Lennon will be looking to add a striker to his squad with The Sun reporting:

CELTIC are interested in a swoop for Girona striker Christian Stuani, according to reports.

Spanish football site AS confirmed an ‘important Scottish club’ are chasing the 32-year-old while Mexican site Radio Formula claim Celtic are interested.

The age and a reported price tag of €7million makes Stuani an unlikely target for Celtic despite an impressive pedigree that includes two years at Middlesbrough that brought him 11 goals in 59 appearances.

In the season just finished he scored 19 times for Girona despite their relegation which is likely to bring him to the attention of Spanish clubs.

With his 33rd birthday coming in October Celtic are more likely to be looking elsewhere than bringing the Uruguayan internationalist to Scotland.

Lennon will be hoping that Bayo or Leigh Griffiths can force their way into his side after Odsonne Edouard provided the goal scoring threat in the Treble Treble season.
