There has been no Celtic bid for Croatian goalkeeper Dinko Horkas, despite the club being described as “best placed” in the line of potential suitors for his services… The UD Las Palmas star’s name has been strongly connected with the Scottish giants in recent days, with it thought they are heavily interested in the stopper. Reports vary between Horkas and German goalkeeper Tjark Ernst Reports seem to vary between Horkas and German goalkeeperTjark Ernst, who sat out his team’s latest pre-season victory, with respected publication Bild claiming it was due to Hertha Berlin protecting their asset, ahead of a potential departure for the 23-year-old. Whilst the veracity of that cannot be ascertained fully, it is rather odd timing and very coincidental. Subsequently, Martin O’Neill has confirmed that the goalkeeping situation is being actively looked at by the recruitment team this close season, as they aim to provide challenge and cover for both Viljami Sinisalo and Ross Doohan, who have been left to battle it out in the aftermath of Kasper Schmeichel’s unfortunate retirement through a bad shoulder issue.
