Bournemouth and Stoke City have registered their interest in signing Celtic defender Bosun Lawal, sources have told Football Insider.

The two English sides are keen on the 21-year-old but face stiff competition from Austrian side RB Salzburg.

Celtic are expected to be willing to listen to loan and permanent offers for the centre-back who impressed on loan at Fleetwood last season.

With fellow Irishman Liam Scales and Swedish international Gustaf Lagerbielke firmly ahead of him in the pecking order, Lawal may find opportunities hard to come by.

Lawal is said to be open to leaving the Glasgow giants if they're unable to offer him any first-team chances.

Celtic willing to let Lawal leave permanently

After an impressive loan spell at Fleetwood, in which he scored six goals and got two assists in 47 appearances, Lawal looks set to leave.

A remarkably versatile player who's equally capable of playing in central midfield, the Republic of Ireland Under-21 international's athleticism is one of his best assets.

Lawal was recently called up to the Republic of Ireland's senior team ahead of their friendly victory over Hungary.

Although he didn't feature in the 2-1 win, he has the potential to be a real asset for both club and country in the near future.

In other news, Celtic fans are excited about potential signing.
