# Celtic: Atletico Madrid eyeing £10m-plus Josip Juranovic move

**Atletico Madrid will scout [Celtic](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/celtic-news/) right-back Josip Juranovic in Croatia’s World Cup quarter-final with Brazil, according to [The Scottish Sun](https://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/sport/football/9885099/atletico-madrid-juranovic-world-cup-celtic-transfer-croatia/).**

### The Lowdown: Celtic stance

The Hoops have recently brought in Canada right-back [Alistair Johnston](https://www.celticfc.com/news/2022/december/03/celtic-delighted-to-sign-canadian-internationalist-alistair-johnston-on-five-year-deal/) from CF Montreal, who appears to be a long-term replacement for Juranovic.

Contract talks have [stalled](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/celtic-news/celtic-confident-5m-juranovic-sale/) with the 27-year-old and [reports](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/celtic-news/celtic-confident-5m-juranovic-sale/) have suggested that Celtic are confident of agreeing on a £5m-plus January sale.

Juranovic has played [every minute](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/josip-juranovic/nationalmannschaft/spieler/362977/verein_id/3556) of action for Croatia in Qatar and looks set to have admirers in attendance for this afternoon’s last-eight tie.

### The Latest: Transfer update

[The Scottish Sun’s David Friel](https://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/sport/football/9885099/atletico-madrid-juranovic-world-cup-celtic-transfer-croatia/) provided an update on Wednesday evening regarding Juranovic.

He said that Atletico will watch the full-back ‘as they eye a £10m-plus January move’, with fellow La Liga side Real Sociedad also keen on the Hoops star.

### The Verdict: No-brainer?

It seems as if Celtic may receive an offer of around £10m from Atletico for Juranovic, which is double what they were apparently confident of receiving earlier this month.

If that offer arrives in Glasgow, then it wouldn’t come as a surprise if Hoops officials were quick to accept. It doesn’t look as if the defender has any plans to extend his Parkhead contract, so making a healthy profit after signing Juranovic for around [£2.5m](https://www.skysports.com/football/news/11787/12383965/josip-juranovic-celtic-agree-2-5m-fee-with-legia-warsaw-for-croatia-right-back) last year could be a no-brainer.
