Albian Ajeti is reported to be looking to get out of Celtic before the transfer window closes on Thursday night.
The striker is halfway through a four year contract following his £4.5m transfer from West Ham. Ajeti had only spent one season at West Ham following a £12m move from Basel.
Joining Celtic during the Lockdown season turned out to be a disastrous move for all concerned, early on in his debut season it became clear that Ajeti had failed to find his Basel form or settle at the club.

Celtic will not stand in his way & are open to offers.
It’s understood Ajeti hasn’t been convinced by the clubs who have expressed an interest, so far, but knows time is running out. pic.twitter.com/z917LYLnf8

Ange Postecoglou did give Ajeti a fresh start, with Kyogo Furuhashi injured and Giorgos Giakoumakis still to make his debut the Swiss internationalist scored against Ross County and Real Betis in successive games last September but again quickly fell out of favour.
So far this season Ajeti has only appeared in pre-season matches, whether a buyer or loan club can be found remains to be seen although getting Vasilis Barkas on loan to Utrecht shows that deals can be struck.
He’s not convinced on how much other clubs will pay him to keep the bench warm.
Disappointing though he was, there was a player there, but £15 mill and never had to kick a ball. I think he thought he was too valuable to need to try hard. When the hunger goes the form disappears right along with it. I’ll be glad to see that back of him.
