Cracovia manager Murat Colak admits the club have had a lot of interest in Celtic-linked defender Oskar Wojcik.

The Parkhead club were reported to have had a £3.5 milion offer rejected for the centre-back at the end of the January transfer window, having tracked him all month.

It has also been suggested they retain their interest, with a huge summer rebuild on the horizon after appointing Martin O'Neill as manager on a permanent basis.

However, other clubs such as Premier League new boys Coventry City are being linked and the player is on record as having a desire to play in the English top flight.

Now, his manager has spoken on the situation and admits Cracovia have had contact from other clubs over the 22-year-old.

Colak told Weszlo.com: “Wojcik is a fantastic player for us, and we support him very much. I won't deny that there's a lot of interest in him. He's a player with enormous potential.

“He's in his prime. We've had some very good offers for him since the winter. We want to be fair to him. If a great offer comes in, one that's good for both the club and Oskar, we'll definitely consider it."

Last month, the 6ft3in star spoke on his own future.

He told Meczyki, he said: "I don't know anything at this point. I haven't heard anything from the club or my agents. It's only in the media.

"Obviously, it's not the right time yet, but I'll definitely want to get there (the English Premier League) someday. We don't know what will happen before then. There's no specific plan."
