Celtic manager Neil Lennon has confirmed he is weighing up a renewed bid to bring Norwegian striker Erik Huseklepp to Parkhead.[LNB] Lennon was keen on Huseklepp during the January transfer window, but pulled out of a £2million deal due to the fee.[LNB]Huseklepp eventually left Brann to join Bari in Italy, but he could be on the move again following the club's relegation from Serie A.[LNB]The Bhoys are in the market for attacking reinforcements and have also been linked with Manchester City's Craig Bellamy and former Cardiff City forward Jay Bothroyd.[LNB]Though Lennon did not confirm whether he would make a fresh bid for Huseklepp, he acknowledged he is an option for Celtic.[LNB]"He's a player we liked the look of at the time," said Lennon. "Talks broke down because they wanted too much money.[LNB]"But it's a possibility given Bari's situation. He's just one of the options in the hat."
