Celtic are reported to be in talks to sign Ben Davies.

The defender was strongly linked with a move to Celtic in January but a defensive crisis at Liverpool saw Jurgen Klopp swoop for the 25-year-old from Preston.

Davies is still waiting to make his Liverpool debut with Stephen McGowan reporting on Celtic reigniting their interest as they chase a solution to their lack of central defenders. Down the years the Daily Mail reporter has had a strong source of Celtic transfer news.

Bournemouth are also reported to be keen on signing the defender on a season long loan.

It seems that central defence is the priority area for Celtic to strengthen with Carl Starfelt, Mario Vuskovic and Cameron Carter-Vickers linked with moves in the last week.

The departures of Jozo Simunovic, Jack Hendry and Hatem Abd Elhamed over the last 12 months has left Celtic short of options with Kris Ajer expected to be sold during the current transfer window.

Davies is under contract with Liverpool until June 2025.
