Report: Celtic keen on 26-yr-old versatile attacker who is wanted by Newcastle
Celtic are keen on signing Ryan Fraser this summer. The 26-year-old’s contract with Bournemouth expired earlier this summer and he is a free agent right now.

On a free transfer, it would be a no brainer and Celtic must do everything in their power to con...
