FC Groningen defender Andreas Granqvist will consider a move to Celtic if the Parkhead club follow up their interest in him.

The Sweden international revealed the Parkhead club have watched him but insists they could face competition for his signature, reportedly from Roy Hodgson's Fulham among others.

"There are many clubs who are interested from Scotland, France and Germany," the former Wigan stopper told Swedish television show, Fotbollskanalen.

"Celtic have had me watched several times.

"Celtic currently show the most interest and I am certainly interested.

"Certainly, there is a difference between interest and concrete, but it looks promising.

"My contract has a term of two years at FC Groningen and must be purchased."
