Meanwhile, Burnley FC have been credited with an interest in Le Havre’s Étienne Youté - with Celtic also reportedly tracking the 23-year-old defender. The centre-back has one year left on his current deal so could be available for a cut price fee.

Sport Witness report: “Celtic and Burnley are among the clubs in the mix to sign Le Havre’s Étienne Youté this summer.

“The centre-back has less than a year left on his contract and could leave the Ligue 1 side if there’s an offer of €5m.

L’Equipe explain last season was the most difficult one in Youté’s career, but that hasn’t put off interested parties.”
