Celtic are considering the possibility of making a late January move for Hull City winger Kamil Grosicki – according to a report.
The usually reliable Scottish Daily Mail (29/1 print edition, back page) say that the 31-year-old is a target for Neil Lennon and the Hoops this month.
The Polish winger is reportedly out of contract this summer, although the English Championship side do have an option to extend that deal for a further year.
Grosicki has netted eight goals in 30 matches this season, including after coming on as a substitute in last weekend’s FA Cup defeat to Chelsea.
A number of other clubs including Nottingham Forest are also said to be keen admirers.
Grosicki has that experience Celtic crave
It does seem like signing a winger will be our biggest priority between now and Friday night.
Rightly or wrongly, Neil Lennon has identified that we need to add some reinforcements in the position – with his comments just last week suggesting that a move for a player like Grosicki could be on the cards.
“At the minute there’s no real names I can come forward with,” he told Sky Sports.
“We’re working away diligently to see if we can get a quality winger in with a little bit of experience as well.”
Grosicki certainly fits that experience tag. He’s bagged a whopping 73 caps for his country, including in nine of their ten Euro 2020 qualifiers as they topped their group by six points.
Whether we’re able to do a deal between now and Friday’s deadline remains to be seen. But it does seem like Lennon would quite like to add reinforcements. That man could well be Grosicki.
Back in late 2018, 67HH writer Connor identified Grosicki as a target the club should be chasing. You can read what he had to say here.
