Celtic interest in international full-back

Georgian football record Celtic is among the teams interested in making a summer move to recruit left-back Irakli Azarovi, according to a report from Geo Team on X.

According to the player’s agent, Mamuka Jugeli, Serie A and Ligue 1 teams are reportedly keeping tabs on the Georgia international in addition to the Premiership outfit.

The teenage defender from Shakhtar Donetsk’s contract, and the amount the Hoops are willing to pay for his services, were not disclosed, though.

If Rodgers and his team want to add him to their roster for the upcoming season, they may need to act swiftly given the competition from France and Italy.

TEAMtalk first revealed in March that the Hoops, having failed to acquire a left-back in January to compete with Greg Taylor, view signing one as a “priority” in the upcoming transfer window.

In addition, they stated that if the Scottish team is unable to secure Azarovi, the Hoops may attempt to recruit Hugo Bueno, a young player for Wolverhampton Wanderers.

In the upcoming weeks or months, Rodgers and his group will need to seek to recruit the talented Georgian in order to boost their left-back ranks and add a potentially deadly partner for Maeda on the flank.
