According to Greek website Sdna.Gr, Panathinaikos sporting director Nikos Dabizas travelled to Scotland last month to watch Celtic attacker Michael Johnston.
It’s reported Dabizas watched the Celtic player in action against Hearts in May, and the Greek club could now make an offer for the player in this transfer window.
Dabizas, who had spells with Newcastle United and Leicester City during his playing career, has good connections in the United Kingdom and his club were previously linked with a move for Magpies winger Callum Roberts.
The 20 year old made the breakthrough with Celtic last season and played 19 games for the Scottish Premiership club, scoring three goals.
It may be unlikely the Hoops will want to let go of the youngster and it could take some persuading from Panathinaikos to land the player.
Johnston is under contract at Celtic Park until June 2023.
