Nancy have accepted bids from three Premier League clubs for striker Marc-Antoine Fortune, but Celtic are likely to be priced out.
The Frenchman was a hit on loan at West Bromwich Albion last season, and Hull City, Portsmouth, Wolverhampton Wanderers and Fulham are among the clubs thought to be interested.
Nancy sporting director Nicolas Holveck said the player could go for as much as £4 million.
"We have accepted three separate offers, all from English clubs."
He added: "All are in excess of 4 million euros (£3.4m) and, with add-ons, one is approaching the 5 million euro (£4.3m) mark.
"We are happy to allow the player to begin negotiations with these clubs and we expect the transfer to be formalised by Monday.
"It's still possible he could move to Celtic but they have yet to make an acceptable offer."

Pt19...will not be 53 this season...and look forward to handing over the cash to ur charity old bhoy....btw any news from IPOX yet....website says that the sunbed tubes have been changed at Useless Park....by all accounts that all Mr Bain could afford to buy!!!!!!!
Nah too much shi*e from the tic,when will you lot stop feelin sorry for yourselves?Always hard done by,always the bridesmaid never the bride 52 & counting big man 52 & counting
Pt17...Too much sun m8???
Sellik in turmoil????? surely not???? why cant they have the pick of the bunch!!!!!!!! its just no fair!!!!!!!!!!!!! sellik should be allowed to sign who they want,when they want at a price they want and to hell with the rest of you!!!!!!!!!! If it wasnt for the tic,well who would be the 1st team in britian to win the european cup and,eh, well thats it really,Fail Fail!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
12 - so it's a PARLIAMENTARY PAPER? Not an ENGLISH PAPER? Where will we all seek this Fountain Of Knowledge then? Explains why our politico's are in the shyte then, if all they can do is debate what is/isn't done at a football match. I dare you to name the source of this political rag then!! Put the URL on here, so's we can ALL see!!
Pt17....Hodgeson no mug and if he is on the buyers list the bhoy must have something
Did I miss something? I'm sure he was @#$% at WBA.
I laughed today when i heard scot brown is out for weeks with ankle surgery. Thats brown, caldwell, mc manus plus a few others out for the start of the season. Celtic are gonna get thumped in the qualifiers. LOL
Ginger, How could i come up with this by myself? Its from a parlimentary paper not your local bumf. It only states the truth. Does it not? Where does it lie? go on, out with it?
5 - an ENGLISH paper, but you failed to name it! The Sun??.. News Of The World?.. Sunday Sport??
1 and 2 - what are your sources? You cannot seriously publish such a sweeping statement/accusation without attributing credit to your source, and its reliability. If somebody accused you of theft, say, you would want to know who your accuser was, so don't come on here spouting this material without naming names!
Paul G - hold on a min,why would a football match have a mins silence for the pope,i may be wrong here but did any matches have a min silence for pope john paul 2nd,apart from italy and poland?
but if they all did,u think ibrox would be silent?
this is the city we live in there are too many hawfwits,brained washed with the baggafe that comes with bein a old fim fan
it was a disgrace for ppl not wanting to be quiet,cause my family are half celtic half rangers,half catholic,half Protestant,and my grada was part of the war.and i was angry at that motherwell game
all this mince about armies,land,religion is a load of non-sense,spprt ur FOOTBALL TEAM!!!
Paul G aka Windae licker...why are you not talking about Rangers???? (Another question btw)
Any news re Rangers in that paper
This is about football. It clearly states celtic fc. Are you blind with all that ham shanking?
I was pretty shocked when i noticed this today. Thats celtic's chances of the premiership gone. This was from an english paper.
This is a football forum you numb nut....
Windae licker....Manchester
