Celtic are set to sign 18-year-old Czech left-back Milan Misun, according to his agent Ondrej Chovanec.

The FK Pribram player spent last week at the Hoops’ Lennoxtown training centre along with 16-year-old team-mate Anton Fantis and impressed Parkhead manager Gordon Strachan.

AC Milan are one of several other clubs reported to be interested in Misun but it looks like the highly-rated youngster is bound for Celtic, although a possible move for Fantis has been put on hold.

Chovanec said: “A group led by coach Gordon Strachan and football development manager John Park told us of their intention to sign Milan immediately.

“The first round of negotiations on Friday lasted four hours with chief executive Peter Lawwell and another meeting should take place after the weekend.

“It would be a great move for Milan.”
