CELTIC have been linked with a summer move for Armenian playmaker Eduard Spertsyan.
The Krasnodar star was previously mentioned with a £13million move to Newcastle United and Ajax last season, but his price has dropped since then
And reports in Russia have claimed the Hoops have been monitoring the 23-year-old, who has 25 caps for his country.
Spertsyan is regarded as the star man of the Armenian national team after making the breakthrough and becoming the youngest-ever Armenian player to feature in the Champions League.
He scored home and away for his country against Ireland two years ago to secure famous wins for the former Soviet nation and was tipped to seal a big-money move, but any interest came to nothing.
And he recently made clear his ambition is still to move.
He said: "Yes I want to play in Europe soon, but I know I’ve got to fight and work for it.
"I don’t want to leave here by running away or with a helicopter!
“I like being at Krasnodar, but I want to try to go to Europe while I have the chance, I don’t know what can happen there. I’m confident and I think I can achieve even bigger goals.”
He still has two years left on his deal at Krasnodar.

The choice of background music for those clips is so off putting.

Don't see how any of these links can be genuine, with no DoF or recruitment structure in place.

He looks quality.

The only reasons I don’t see there being much in this is his value seems well north of £10m and he has 2 years left on his deal come the summer. We aren’t paying that for any player. His team are also right in the hunt for the Russian title. -

The Armenian Mhkitaryan….

Offer of a "loan to buy" coming from Lawell and co.
The Russian side will quite rightly tell us to * do one. -
