Celtic are among a string of clubs being linked with a summer move for Middlesbrough forward Viktor Fischer.

The 22-year-old Denmark international's future on Teesside is up in the air with managerless Boro preparing for life in the Championship after their relegation form the top tier.

Fischer made just nine appearances for the English north east side and has yet to find the net since his £3.8million move from Ajax last summer.

Now he has emerged as a target for a string of Dutch clubs - and Celtic - according to reports south of the border.

Fischer netted against the Hoops at Parkhead when Ajax won a Europa League clash 2-1 in 2015.

Hoops boss Brendan Rodgers is reportedly a long-term admirer of the attacking midfielder who has scored three goals in 15 appearances for his country.

Rodgers has made clear his ambition to add quality in midfield areas to his squad of Invincibles this summer.

Fischer certainly possesses the ability to open up defences and also chip in with goals and fits the profile of what Rodgers is after.

He scored a total of 33 goals in 111 appearances for Ajax before moving to Boro.

Fischer is regarded as one of Denmark's brightest prospects but coach Age Hareide has warned him he must find regular first-team action or risk losing his place in the national team.
