Celtic has intensified efforts to sign Lazio winger Matteo Cancellieri ahead of possible offers from West Ham United. This comes as the 24-year-old has been struggling for playing time at Lazio, following a season that saw him score four goals and provide two assists in 30 appearances. Cancellieri's contract is set to expire next year, adding urgency to his potential move. Meanwhile, West Ham is reportedly prioritizing a left winger to replace Crysencio Summerville rather than pursuing a right winger like Cancellieri.
