According to Eurosport France journalist Manu Lonjon, Celtic have tabled a firm offer of around €1.5 million plus bonus for the services of Rennes defender Brandon Soppy ahead of the summer transfer window.
The Hoops registered interest in the teenage right-back last month, but they have the likes of RB Leipzig and Nice in their way, with the Bundesliga side stepping up in their pursuit last month.
While he is yet to play senior team football, Soppy has caught the eyes of various clubs’ scouts having put up impressive performances in the UEFA Youth League games against FK Brodarac, Maccabi Petah Tikva and Club Brugge this term.
