Blackburn Rovers goalkeeper Balazs Toth is being considered by Celtic, according to recent reports. The 28-year-old Hungarian international has been in fine form for Blackburn Rovers, who are currently 9th in the Championship with 1 point from 1 game, having scored 2 goals and conceded 2.
What's the situation?
Toth's current contract with Blackburn Rovers is set to expire next summer, and he is unwilling to extend his stay at Ewood Park. This has led to Celtic registering their interest in the goalkeeper, who would provide competition for Viljami Sinisalo.
Why the interest?
Celtic's manager is looking to strengthen his goalkeeping options, and Toth's impressive performances for Blackburn Rovers have caught his attention. The Hungarian international has featured 35 times for Blackburn Rovers last campaign, and his experience would be valuable to the Scottish club.
What's next?
Blackburn Rovers are likely to lose Toth, with the player's contract set to expire soon. Celtic are willing to pay around £4m to secure his services, and the transfer could be completed in the coming weeks. Currently, Lewis Miller is sidelined for Blackburn Rovers, who are 2 points behind leaders QPR in the Championship.
