CELTIC have been keeping tabs on Cork City striker Seanie Maguire.
The Hoops have already sent scouts to watch the highly-rated frontman who has been in prolific form this season.
Maguire has netted nine goals in 11 league games to catch the attention of Hoops boss Brendan Rodgers.
Championship side Preston are also interested in the frontman and Deepdale manager Simon Grayson has already spied on the youngster. Reading, too, are monitoring the situation.
Maguire is thought to have a release clause in his Cork contract worth a reported £100,000.
The attacker joined West Ham in 2013 and had a two-year spell with the London outfit before returning to Ireland.
He also had loan stint at Accrington Stanley.
