Seems Georgy is in some demand:
[color="Blue"]Celtic could face a battle from Serie A side Lazio in their bid to tie down striker Georgios Samaras on a permanent deal
The Greek striker spent the second half of last season on loan at Parkhead from Manchester City, netting five SPL goals in the process and manager Gordon Strachan is now reportedly keen to sign him permanently.
However, the Hoops may face competition in their quest to wrap up the deal after Lazio expressed their interest in signing the 23-year-old.
Lazio president Claudio Lotito told the Daily Record: "Samaras is a player we're considering and we'll see what happens. I can confirm we're actively trying to sign a striker and hope to secure a deal for one any day soon."
Newly-promoted Lecce are also rumoured to be keen on Samaras as they plan for life in Serie A next season. [/color]
If he's wanted by so many clubs he must be good. Perhaps we should buy him. Seriously though, if there's a scrap them we might even get our money back.
