Aston Villa are reportedly in discussions with Celtic over the transfer of striker Libor Kozak.

It is thought that the Czech Republic international is free to leave the Premier League club this summer, despite featuring for the Villans during their pre-season run-in under manager Tim Sherwood.

The 26-year-old, who has seven international caps, has managed to score just four goals in 15 appearances in all competitions for the club since arriving from Lazio for £7m nearly two years ago.

However Kozak, who suffered a broken leg during his debut season in the English top flight, is also attracting interest from German outfit Mainz.

One response to “Celtic to snap up out-of-favour Villa forward”

  1. Barry'sboots says:

    As a Villa fan with a soft spot for Celtic (it was my dad’s team), I think Libor will be a great acquisition for Celtic. He will score goals for fun in the SPL. I am not as convinced about him in the EPL. He would have been decent back up to, say, a Charlie Austin but as we have already bought in Gestede (who I hope will be the back up/first change option), I would like us to clear out Libor and bring in a stronger option to challenge for a starting berth.
