The Glasgow giants could step up their bid to try to land Mohammadi if they sell Kieran Tierney.

The left-back has been one of Celtic’s most important players in recent seasons, playing a key role as they won the ‘treble treble’.

Tierney’s impressive performances have led to interest from Arsenal, who are eyeing a long-term replacement for Nacho Monreal.

According to Football Insider, the Gunners are set to make an offer Celtic ‘can’t refuse’ after seeing an initial £15m bid knocked back.

Celtic are desperate to hang on to Tierney but seem resigned to seeing him follow fellow left-back Emilio Izaguirre out the door.

And Neil Lennon wants Milad Mohammadi to come in to fill the void.

The Iran international made headlines at last summer’s World Cup as he attempted a roly poly throw in against Spain.

And Mohammadi, who plays for Akhmat Grozny in Russia, could be on his way to Scotland.

He was a member of Ira national football team in the 2018 World Cup.

Mohammadi is out of contract at the end of the month and is available on a free.

The 25-year-old is a long-term target of Celtic and Football Insider claim he’s keen on a move.

Mohammadi is also able to play further forward and is wanted by Championship duo Fulham and Bristol City.

TEHRAN – West Bromwich Albion are going to sign Akhmat Grozny’s Milad Mohammadi after they failed to pen a contract with Luton Town defender Jack Stacey.

The Baggies haven’t gone gung-ho in the transfer market this summer, as they have brought in a solid center back in Kyle Bartley, winger Harvey Barnes and two goalkeepers in Sam Johnstone and Jonathan Bond, Daily Mail reported.

Fans are expecting more signings before the transfer deadline, especially with James McClean gone and the likes of Craig Dawson and Salomon Rondon expected to go, and it seems that defensive reinforcements are wanted.

West Brom have submitted one approach for Luton Town defender Jack Stacey, but their move has been snubbed, whilst Milad Mohammadi is a target at left back.

Stacey, 22, came up through the ranks with Reading but made just six appearances for the Royals before heading to Luton on a permanent basis in 2017, following loan spells with Barnet, Carlisle United and Exeter City.

A right back who can also play in midfield, Stacey was a key part of the Luton side which won promotion to League One last season, and it remains to be seen whether West Brom continue to push to bring him to the second tier.

Meanwhile, Akhmat Grozny ace Milad Mohammadi is thought to be a target at left back, with boss Darren Moore potentially looking for competition for first-choice left back Kieran Gibbs.

Mohammadi, 24, is a pacey, attack-minded left back who has also been linked with Celtic and Rangers – and the Baggies may hope to secure his signature before the transfer deadline.

Glasgow Rangers boss Steven Gerrard is keen to bring Milad Mohammadi at Ibrox but could face strong competition from Celtic.

Earlier this week, The Scottish Sun reported that the Gers are keeping tabs on the Iranian defender and could move for him in the summer.

The 24-year-old plays as a left-back for Russian outfit Akhmat Grozny, but he can also operate as a winger, wing-back, or right-back.

The report claimed that Rangers would have to pay in the region of £2 million to sign him.

Getting the work permit shouldn’t be an issue as Mohammadi now has 21 caps to his name, two of which came as a substitute in games at the World Cup this summer.

Rangers could face strong competition from their Old Firm rivals Celtic. The Scottish Sun has now reported that the Bhoys have also registered an interest in the player.

Celtic are financially in a stronger position than Rangers, and it wouldn’t be a problem for them to dish out £2m reportedly needed to sign Mohammadi.

The Ibrox club must act quickly and make a quick move for the defender if they are indeed serious. Gerrard has stressed the need to sign a defender, but he would be a smart signing for the club.
