Romanian champions CFR Cluj have reportedly received three offers for star man Billel Omrani after the French attacker netted a brace against Celtic last week – and Celtic fans have reacted on Twitter.

Romanian outlet Gazeta Sporturilor have claimed that three offers have been received – and one of those could be from Scottish champions Celtic because the bids have been made by Scottish and Israeli sides.

It is believed that the highest offer put to Cluj is worth £3.2million, which is expected to exclude any other Scottish sides than Old Firm rivals Celtic and Rangers. Omrani has a contract at Cluj until the summer of 2021.

Neil Lennon is under intense pressure to spend the £25million received for Kieran Tierney on new players before September 2, especially after exiting the Champions League and being taken to extra time by Dunfermline.

Omrani, 26, has been in sensational form and after his brace against Celtic last week, he has taken his tally this season to eight goals in 12 games – despite being used out wide and up front.

Celtic fans reacted to the news that an offer from Scotland has been received for the former Marseille attacker, with the majority of Hoops fans keen to see him brought to Parkhead this summer after watching him shine for Cluj.
