According to reports from France on Flaming Hairdryer, Scottish giants Celtic F.C are one of two clubs to have approached France Ligue 1 side Le Havre about potential signing of Zimbabwe striker Tino Kadewere.
As reported by RMC Sport via The Scotman, the tabloid claims that the Parkhead club have made “concrete approaches” for the 24-year-old centre-forward – who has been subject of offers in the region of €8m (£6.8m).
Following this report, a Celtic-focused account on social networking website Twitter @celticbible updated their followers on the club’s links with the striker saying:

The 5-caps Zimbabwe international, who has 17 goals in 19 matches this season, has been in red-hot scoring form for Le Havre this season.
His brilliant goal scoring record from 19 matches has put him six goals clear of the League’s most prolific players in the division.
However, Kadewere is not the only striker believed to be on Celtic’s radar in the January transfer window – the Daily Record reported quotes from Slovan Bratislava chief Ivan Kmotrik saying that the Hoops had met with the club about a potential bid for Andraz Sporar.
Celtic fans on the other hand, has taken to social networking site Twitter to give their approval to the club’s apparent interest in Kadewere, with one supporter hoping he will echo the success of Moussa Dembele, who scored 51 times in 94 games for the Hoops before his move to Olympique Lyonnais last summer:
Please be the next Moussa.

His highlights reel on YouTube is underwhelming. Marginally better than Mo Bangura’s. I kid you not.
