Caoimhin Kelleher has been backed to move from Liverpool to Celtic this summer.

The Scottish champions are the current favourites to secure his services, according to safebettingsites.com.

The Republic of Ireland international played a major role in Liverpool's Carabao Cup triumph against Chelsea last weekend as he deputised for Allison.

However, the 25-year-old goalkeeper's future seems to lie away from Anfield.

Celtic have been priced at 9/4 to sign the stopper in the close season, with Nottingham Forest at 3/1 and Wolves at 7s.

Neil Roarty, spokesperson for safebettingsites.com, said: “Caoimhin Kelleher’s performance in the Carabao Cup final and subsequent future has been one of the many subplots to emerge from Sunday’s drama, with Celtic looking like potential suitors should the Irish goalkeeper leave Liverpool this summer.

“The Scottish champions are the 9/4 favourites to be Kelleher’s next club, followed by Premier League outfits Nottingham Forest (3/1) and Wolves (7/1).”

The full list of odds for Caoimhin Kelleher’s next club:

Celtic 9/4

Nottingham Forest 3/1

Wolves 7/1

Brentford 9/1

Brighton 9/1

Leeds United 9/1

BAR 12/1

Meanwhile, Sydney van Hooijdonk has taken a dig at the standard of Scottish football while revealing the 'truth' over links with a move to Celtic.

The striker, son of ex-Celt Pierre, was heavily rumoured to be on his way to Parkhead on loan in the January transfer window.

However, he eventually moved from Bologna to Norwich, with Adam Idah subsequently coming on loan to Glasgow.

The Dutchman admits no official talks took place between the Scottish champions and his representatives in the winter, but he did reveal there was contact last summer.

Van Hooijdonk admits he's a Celtic fan, however, his views of the Premiership are not particularly great.
