A number of Celtic fans have been giving their thoughts on the report linking Liam Moore with a move to Parkhead.

According to the Daily Record, the Reading defender is on the radar of Hoops boss Neil Lennon, who is seeking defensive reinforcements for the 2020-21 season.

The report claims that Moore is being considered as an alternative to Brighton’s Shane Duffy, who is apparently also a target for West Ham, West Brom and Burnley.

It is understood that the English Championship club values Moore at £4.5million, but due to their financial issues, there may be scope for negotiations over the transfer sum.

The 27-year-old made 44 appearances for Reading last season, including 43 in the league, and has been an ever-present in the Royals’ starting XI in recent years.

He was handed the captaincy by previous manager Jose Gomes, but lost his starting spot near the end of last season, with current boss Mark Bowen opting for younger options.

Moore, who has three years left on his current deal, is a ball-playing centre-back who is comfortable in possession, strong in the air, reads the game well and has leadership skills.

But what have Celtic fans made of the speculation? Below is some of the social media reaction:
