The agent of Alexandre Mendy has denied receiving an offer from Celtic for the SM Caen star.
A week ago, L’Equipe came out with a report stating about the ‘great interest’ from the Hoops to sign the Ligue 2 striker.
The French newspaper also went on to explain that Celtic have ‘already made a proposal’ of €3m ‘in order to attract him’.
Claims of the Parkhead club making a proposal to sign the 28-year-old, who has scored 16 goals and registered one assist from 31 Ligue 2 matches, has now been dismissed by his agent, Warsame Egal.
Following L’Equipe’s report about Celtic’s offer, the website again approached Egal for a response and that’s when he denied these claims.
“We don’t know where it comes from… If a club wants a player, we still start by asking the player if he wants to come, right? I haven’t been contacted by anyone, so I think it’s obviously not true,” Egal told Le10 Sport.
The Guinea-Bissau international’s current deal with Caen will run down in 2024. As it stands, there has been no proposal or official approach from Ange Postecoglou’s side to sign Mendy.
