Yokohama F Marinos have confirmed they have made a bid to bring former star Shunsuke Nakamura back to Japan.
The Glasgow Celtic midfielder, whose contract with the Scottish giants expires at the end of this season, had previously expressed a desire to finish his career in Japan and his former club Marinos are keen to take advantage of the situation.
"We have made an offer to Nakamura to sign him," a club spokesman said.
"We would like to begin negotiations as soon as possible so that we can bring good news to his fans in Japan."
Nakamura, 31 in June, left Yokohama in 2002 to join Serie A outfit Reggina.
He signed with Celtic in 2005 and has become a favorite with the fans and manager Gordon Strachan, helping his team to three consecutive titles.
