SPL - Norway international Thorstein Helstad's recent performances at both club and international level have alerted several British clubs to his talent, with Celtic believed to be interested in taking him to Parkhead.

The 30-year-old striker returned to former club SK Brann in 2006, signing a three-and-a-half year deal after spells with Rosenborg and Austria Vienna, and he claims to be happy at the club where he made a name for himself between 1998 and 2002.

"Some have inquired about the situation and some have come to watch Brann," Helstad's agent Stig Lillejord told BT. "It's normal considering Thorstein's good performances.

"Celtic is an interesting option but we haven't received an official offer from them yet."

In January Premiership side Everton also expressed interest in Helstad but the marksman has not heard from the Toffees since.

"Since the offer from Everton I haven't received any real offers. I am not planning on moving abroad any time soon, I am very happy with Brann for the moment", Helstad added.
