Celtic boss Ange Postecoglou appears to have his eyes set on landing a new centre-forward recruit, with recent reports having claimed that a striker is one potential priority for the Parkhead outfit in the January transfer window.

That search has perhaps been influenced by the continued uncertainty surrounding the future of current Hoops man, Giorgos Giakoumakis, with the Greek international having been tipped for an exit of late.

The suggestion is that there has been a breakdown regarding talks over a bumper new deal for the 27-year-old, with the former VVV-Venlo man believed to be demanding a greater salary than the one he is currently being offered.

Even if the 11-cap marksman does remain in Glasgow, the Scottish champions could seemingly be in need of further additions to the forward line, particularly after having seen Swiss flop Albian Ajeti head to Sturm Graz on loan over the summer.

One man who could seemingly be an ideal candidate to strengthen Postecoglou's ranks is South Korean sensation, Gue-sung Cho, with reports at the end of last month suggesting that the striker is a player on the Old Firm side's radar.

The former FC Anyang man scored twice in his four outings in the competition prior to his nation's recent exit at the hands of Brazil, with both of those strikes coming in the defeat to Ghana in the second group game.

Those two devastating headers showcased just what a potent and clinical goalscoring threat the forward is inside the penalty area, with Cho having also proven prolific at club level in recent times, with 21 goals in 35 games in the 2021/22 campaign.

That has ensured that his overall club career tally now stands at 51 goals and 16 assists in 133 games thus far at senior level, as well as an impressive record for his country with six goals in just 20 caps.

Not only a menacing presence in front of goal, the Korean ace is also a player who has "a little bit of swagger", according to the aforementioned Lee, ensuring that he may well prove something of an instant hit were he to make the move to Paradise.

The in-form marksman is already a popular figure in his homeland having reportedly had to turn off his phone after receiving a raft of marriage proposals amid his World Cup heroics, with the hope being that he switches it back on again to receive any possible calls from Postecoglou and co...
