Celtic have joined the race to sign Zoltan Gera as the Hungary captain continues to stall on Albion's contract offer.
The Old Firm giants have joined the Baggies, Wigan and Bolton in the battle to sign Gera, who also has an offer on the table from Benfica. The 29-year-old was due back in England today after a week on international duty in his homeland.
Resolving his future will now be at the top of the agenda for Gera, who was hoping to sign up with a club before Saturday's Budapest friendly with Croatia. Albion remain among the clubs the out-of-contract Gera is considering but competition for his services is growing fierce, with news of Celtic's interest a blow to the Baggies' hopes.
Celtic can offer Gera Champions League football, at a time when he is keen to display his talents on the grandest stage.
