Celtic can pull off transfer masterstroke by signing striker

Celtic still have a lot to play for this season. They still have to get over the line in the Scottish Premiership and they are in the Scottish Cup semi-final as well, where they will be taking on the Rangers. Thus, a treble is still up for grabs and the summer transfer window will be far away from the minds of the fans. Those working behind the scenes at Parkhead are expected to be already working on potential signings though.

If there is one thing that we have learned during the time of Ange Postecoglou, it is that the club are keeping an eye on potential targets long before the transfer window opens. And one player that they have been linked with recently is Levi Garcia.

Garcia currently plays for AEK Athens in the Greek top flight and is enjoying a superb campaign. According to stats from Transfermarkt, he has scored 18 goals and provided 6 assists in 33 appearances this season till now.

With Liel Abada being heavily linked with a move away from Celtic, signing someone like Garcia has the potential to be a transfer masterstroke.

Garcia has played most of his football this season as a striker. But over the years, he was considered as a winger, capable of playing on both flanks.

It is that kind of versatility that could be most attractive to Celtic. The team is certainly filled with players who can play in multiple positions.

If someone like Abada was to leave, Garcia could come in and take his place in the squad while providing cover up top at the same time. At 25 years of age, the Trinidad and Tobago international is someone ready to enter his prime. Thus, he is a player the Hoops should keep their eyes on ahead of the summer.
