According to the Daily Mail, Celtic have made an enquiry about Liverpool's veteran centre-back Sami Hyypia.
The 34-year-old Finland international is out of contract at the end of the season and has not been offered a new deal by the Anfield club.
The defender is said to be frustrated by Liverpool's reluctance to give him another year at the club he has served for nine seasons as he was hoping to celebrate a decade in a red shirt in 2008/9.
This is not the first time Hyypia has been the subject of interest from other clubs.
At the start of this season, he admitted that he turned down big money offers from Newcastle and Wigan because he wanted to have one last tilt at winning the Premier League title with Liverpool.
He has since been linked with Kevin Keegan's Newcastle, Fulham and now the Scottish Champions.
Hyypia's chances of starting every game with Liverpool are diminishing, following Rafa Benitez signing of Slovakian international Martin Skrtel for £7 million and the, temporarily postponed, return from injury of Daniel Agger.
It now appears almost certain that the player will move on in the summer and the news of Gordon Strachan has made an enquiry will give him another possible destination when he considers his options.
