The Scottish Premiership giants are reportedly pursuing a loan deal with an option to buy in the summer.

Iheanacho, 28, joined Sevilla on a free transfer last summer but has struggled to establish himself, making just nine league appearances for the Rojiblancos.

Sevilla manager Garcia Pimienta has indicated that Iheanacho will be allowed to leave the club this month. Celtic are said to be exploring the possibility of bringing him to Glasgow.
