Everton stunned by Celtic transfer demand over star as David Moyes eyes Premier League alternative Everton have been linked with a move for a Celtic star this summer transfer window. Celtic have reportedly stunned Everton with their price demand for one of the Toffees’ transfer targets. The Hoops have a number of stars who are on the agendas of other clubs this summer transfer window and Alistair Johnston is one of them. He has returned to form following an injury that wrecked much of last season and a Premier League move is reportedly one option for the Canadian international. Martin O’Neill’s side have a vital Champions League play-off against LASK to come later this month and are not willing to sell their players on the cheap. Everton have now been left baulking at the cash demand sent by the Premiership champions and boss David Moyes has started turning their attentions to the likes of Crystal Palace’s Daniel Munoz instead. What right-back could Everton sign this summer? Nixon said via Patreon: “Everton will move for Colombian right back Daniel Munoz - if Crystal Palace would sell. Munoz has been a massive hit since joining the Eagles two and a half years who but Palace are signing his long term replacement. Now the Toffees have asked to be kept informed about Munoz as they look to sort out one of their problem positions. “Everton have baulked at the price tag on Celtic’s Alistair Johnston and have looked into a deal for West Ham’s Aaron Wan Bissaka. Palace may have huge interest in Munoz if they hint he could go and they expect to field offers in the coming weeks.” Strikers Camillo Duran and Kasper Hogh have arrived at Celtic so far with the latter scoring a hat-trick in Sunday’s 5-1 win over Kilmarnock. Hogh said: "First of all, all glory to God. But, yeah, I'm a happy, happy boy, as you can see. Of course, it was nice to get my first goal early in the game. That definitely helps. "It's also new for me to be one of the guys, so that was nice to get an early goal. I had some great assists from the boys. For the first one, it was almost in the goal, so I just had to get there. But all credit to my teammates. They are some good footballers. They also have to learn about me, my patterns and all that, so it's just nice that I can be there and touch it in the goal. I just take one day at a time, but of course I have dreams also and targets in my head."
