Richard Kone is attracting attention from multiple clubs, including Brentford, Crystal Palace, Norwich City, Toulouse from France, and Belgian club Royale Union Saint-Gilloise. Celtic is facing stiff competition in their bid to sign Kone. The 22-year-old Ivorian striker, currently playing for Wycombe Wanderers, has made a significant impact by scoring 21 goals and providing five assists in 52 matches last season, which led to him being named the League One Player of the Season and Young Player of the Season. Wycombe has turned down offers exceeding £5 million, and it is reported that they might request a fee closer to £7 million. Celtic, considering Kone as a possible successor to Daizen Maeda, who might transfer to the Premier League, are reluctant to agree to Wycombe's price unless Maeda's move generates substantial funds.
