Scott Allan insists Celtic<\/a> shouldn’t think twice if an opportunity arises to re-sign Odsonne Edouard.<\/p>\n Brendan Rodgers<\/a> has already brought returning heroes Kieran Tierney and Jota back to Parkhead after stints elsewhere.<\/p>\n Edouard<\/a>, 27, flopped on loan at Leicester City and has no future at Crystal Palace as he enters the final year of his deal.<\/p>\n The former PSG striker – who swapped Celtic Park for Selhurst Park in a \u00a314million transfer four years ago – was prolific in Glasgow.<\/p>\n Rodgers<\/a> even labelled the Frenchman as one of the best young players he had worked with after shelling out a then-club record \u00a39m to turn his season-long loan into a permanent deal in 2018.<\/p>\n And when asked if he should be on Celtic’s radar this summer, Allan told Clyde 1 Superscoreboard: “I would, yeah. Fantastic player. It’s obviously a position that Celtic will be looking to add to.<\/p>\n “I think we might see Daizen Maeda go back out to that wide area, where he was so effective in terms of his pressing and getting up and down the pitch.<\/p>\n “He’ll be looking to add to his goal tally come next season. I think there’s no question that it’s an area of the park where Celtic need to strengthen.”<\/p>\n A potential stumbling block could be Edouard’s lucrative salary at the Eagles, something Allan believes could be a deal breaker.<\/p>\n The ex-Hoops midfielder said: “I think the problem with the boys that are playing in the Premier League is that there’s now the chance to go to the Saudi League where they can earn ridiculous amounts of money.<\/p>\n “The Kieran Tierney one is completely different because he’s a huge Celtic fan and he’s been dying to get back home and probably feels like he’s got unfinished business at Celtic.<\/p>\n “So it’ll be interesting but I do feel that Celtic will be looking to find the next Odsonne Edouard where they can get a tune from them and then make money from them.”<\/p>\n Follow Record Sport <\/strong>on Twitter<\/a>, Facebook<\/a> and Instagram<\/a> for all of the up-to-the minute breaking news, video and audio on the SPFL, the Scotland national team and beyond.<\/p>\n You can get all the news you need on our dedicated Rangers<\/a> and Celtic<\/a> pages, and sign up to our newsletters<\/a> to make sure you never miss a beat throughout the season.
