Report: Celtic target Andraz Sporar on the verge of joining Sporting Lisbon

According to reports from Record (h/t The Daily Record), Andraz Sporar is on the verge of joining Sporting Lisbon. He is on the verge of sealing a £5 million move to the Portuguese club, and the deal is likely to be completed in the next 24 hours.

The news will come as a massive blow for Celtic, as the Slovenian international has been heavily linked with a move to Parkhead. The Bhoys reportedly held initial discussions with the Slovenia striker and his representatives in December, but the 25-year-old has set his heart out on joining Sporting Lisbon instead.
