Celtic faces an uphill battle keeping Kelechi Iheanacho beyond this season. The Scottish club's option to extend his deal has already expired.
Iheanacho, 29, wasn't at Lennoxtown when the champions began pre-season preparations. He's currently in Nigeria, training alone while weighing his options.
According to The Scottish Sun, the Super Eagles striker wants to remain at Parkhead. He impressed during Celtic's title-winning campaign.
Manager Martin O'Neill also wants to keep the former Manchester City and Leicester City forward. But contract talks haven't begun yet.
His status as a free agent has attracted Turkish clubs with substantial offers. Multiple suitors are circling the experienced striker.
Uncertainty hangs over whether Iheanacho will sign a new Celtic contract or pursue opportunities elsewhere. A decision could come soon.
