Celtic are keeping tabs on the former Borussia Dortmund manager Lucien Favre as a potential alternative option if their move for Eddie Howe falls through.
The former Bournemouth manager is believed to be the top target as per Football Insider.
Apparently, the Scottish outfit have already presented the manager with a lucrative offer and it will be interesting to see if the former Premier League manager agrees to sign the contract with Celtic.
Meanwhile, 63-year-old Favre is currently out of a job after being dismissed by the German club in December.
