Celtic remain in pursuit of Schalke's Pukki, Werder Bremen's Arnautovic

German club Schalke are not in the mood to sell Teemu Pukki according to Celtic boss Neil Lennon.

The 23-year old Finland striker has emerged as a target for the Hoops but Lennon said on Saturday that Schalke had thus far rejected their overtures.

"I've not spoken to (chief executive) Peter (Lawwell) today but we did go in with another offer yesterday, but at the minute they are not prepared to sell," Lennon said.

Lennon also confirmed that the Scottish champions were interested in Werder Bremen striker Marko Arnautovic.

"We are interested in the player but whether there has been a bid in or not, I can't confirm, I wouldn't have thought so," he added.

"They are two different types of players and both players that we like."
