Celtic Pursues Napoli Striker Ambrosino Amid Serie A Competition

Celtic are actively seeking to strengthen their forward line this summer, having already signed young striker Callum Osmand and showing strong interest in Napoli's Giuseppe Ambrosino. Ambrosino, a 21-year-old Italian youth international yet to make a senior breakthrough at Napoli, is believed to be the primary striker target, with Celtic reportedly working on a loan deal including an option to buy. However, Celtic face competition from Serie A clubs Cremonese, who have made a €3 million bid, and Cagliari, who are also monitoring the player. Cremonese's sporting director confirmed their pursuit of Ambrosino and emphasized their intent to strengthen their squad for Serie A survival, acknowledging his potential despite not being a prolific scorer yet. Alongside Ambrosino, Celtic are also linked with Japanese forward Shin Yamada and may sign a second, more established striker to bolster their attacking options. The next few weeks will be critical as Celtic look to secure deals amid competition and Napoli manager Antonio Conte's decision on Ambrosino's future after pre-season evaluations.
