Celtic remain interested in a transfer swoop for Dundee midfielder Luke McCowan.

The 26-year-old Dens Park captain has also been linked with Hibs this summer.

Dundee booted out two bids for McCowan from Hibs for McCowan - with fees believed to be in the region of £750k.

According to The Celtic Way, McCowan is firmly on Celtic's radar as a potential signing this summer.

It's thought Dundee will hold out for £1m for the key player who flourished in the Scottish Premiership last season.

English Championship club Bolton and MLS sides have also been credited with an interest in McCowan this summer.

The former Ayr United ace played 41 times last term, scoring ten goals and providing five assists as Dundee claimed a top six finish. McCowan has two goals in two games in the league so far this season.

Tony Docherty previously said of transfer interest in McCowan: “Will it take a big offer to let Luke go? Yes, because he is such a valuable member of our squad.

“But that’s not really a question for me – I just want to surround myself with as many good players and good people as I can and Luke is both of them."

Brendan Rodgers has stated he will look for two signings in central midfield if Matt O'Riley completes a transfer move to Brighton.

He said: "I still think we need another player in that position. If he (O'Riley) was to go, we'd need two more.

"I will need to speak to the board. There's a lot of work going on and there’s lots that we need to do."
