Kozak out? Ljajic In?

Kozak

Celtic are in talks to sign Aston Villa striker Libor Kozak before the transfer window slams shut, according to various media reports.

26-year-old Kozak has yet to start for the Birmingham side this season, despite looking a damn sight more impressive than Gabby in pre-season and has played only 15 games since arriving at the club in 2013 due mainly to injury.

The Czech forward was plagued by injury in his debut season due to complications from a broken leg. German team Mainz are also said to be sniffing.

Adem Ljajic

Villa would clearly need to replace Kozak in the squad if he were to leave and Tim Sherwood rumoured to be after Roma forward Adem Ljajic.

Ljajic, 23, joined Roma from Fiorentina in an £8m deal in 2013 but maybe surplus to requirements after the Rome club landed Mohamed Salah and Edin Dzeko..
