Celtic are reported to have contacted Liverpool over taking Stefan Bajcetic on a season long loan.
Last season the midfielder was out on loan at RB Salzburg and Las Palmas, enjoying six Champions League appearances with the Austrians followed by relegation with a club that included Oli McBurke and Fabio Silva.
The loan claim comes from Class Liverpool, a little followed Twitter account but now and then these sources get wind of something of substance.
? ?????????: Celtic have contacted Liverpool about Stefan Bajcetic, preferring a loan-to-buy deal. The 20-year old missed the Asia tour to injury. Liverpool open to a permanent deal if the price is right. #LFC to discuss his future post-tour. Not advanced yet.??? pic.twitter.com/k3PAETv9E8

With Ben Nygren quickly adapting to life at Celtic it would seem that Brendan Rodgers is well covered with six options in that area of the park.
Bajcetic is a defensive midfielder, an area that Celtic don’t really have a specialist in but it would probably require the departure of a current midfielder to create an opening for the Liverpool man.
With the SPFL Premiership season starting at the weekend the next deadline that Celtic are looking at is for the Champions League Play Off with August 14 the deadline for signing and registering players for those matches.
