# Celtic: Hoops make Sacha Boey bid

**Celtic have now made a bid for Rennes right-back Sacha Boey, according to [The Glasgow Evening Times](https://www.glasgowtimes.co.uk/sport/19440511.amp/?__twitter_impression=true).**

### The Lowdown: Soppy links

Celtic have been [linked](https://twitter.com/FabrizioRomano/status/1413955543836856324) with another Rennes right-back in Brandon Soppy prior to the rumours regarding Boey.

[Fabrizio Romano](https://twitter.com/FabrizioRomano/status/1413955543836856324) claimed that the Hoops opened talks over a move for Soppy, who is [valued at £6.3m by Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/brandon-soppy/profil/spieler/546880).

The transfer expert once again [mentioned Soppy when he shared the Hoops’ move for centre-back Carl Starfelt](https://twitter.com/FabrizioRomano/status/1415208775192043520), but it seems as if they have now made an offer for Boey.

Either way, it is clear they are desperate for a new right-back.

### The Latest: Boey bid

According to [The Glasgow Evening Times](https://www.glasgowtimes.co.uk/sport/19440511.amp/?__twitter_impression=true), Celtic have made an offer in the region of £1m for Boey.

The 5ft 8 full-back, valued at [£2.2m by Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/sacha-boey/profil/spieler/475413), has [12 months remaining on his deal](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/sacha-boey/profil/spieler/475413).

Boey spent last season on loan at Dijon and is on just [£1,600-a-week](https://salarysport.com/football/ligue-1/dijon-fco/), with discussions underway between Rennes and the Hoops over a deal.

### The Verdict: Sign both?

At first glance, it appears as if the Hoops have possibly looked at Boey as an alternative to Soppy. However, with Celtic having just [Anthony Ralston as their only senior right-back](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/celtic-fc/kader/verein/371/plus/0/galerie/0?saison_id=2021), it may well be a case of signing both over just one, especially after a cut-price bid for Boey.

Boey, who is just 20 years of age, could represent a good piece of business from the Hoops, should they be successful with a £1m offer.

He already has [32](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/sacha-boey/leistungsdaten/spieler/475413) Ligue 1 appearances under his belt, can [play as a right-back or a left-back and is a France Under-20 international](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/sacha-boey/profil/spieler/475413). All promising signs, and hopefully a right-back will arrive in Scotland relatively soon, or possibly even two if these reports are anything to go by.
