The North Macedonia international has scored 14 goals in 27 appearances for the Dons this season.
And Hartson is a fan of the 24-year-old, even rating him at £5million,
Speaking on Go Radio, he said: “I think he’d be a brilliant signing for Celtic. I think he gets players playing off him.
“Fantastic at holding it up. You know you got really good signs of getting a hold of the ball, linking players in, he’s a wonderful finisher.
“I would pay £5 million for him. I think he’s an outstanding player.”
Meanwhile, Celtic striker Oh Hyeon-gyu has been named in the South Korea squad for the Asian Cup.
It means the striker will be unavailable for a handful of Celtic matches starting in January.
It’s the same story for winger Yang Hyun-jun who has also been selected for his country.
Oh is one of only two strikers listed in the squad for the tournament in Qatar – alongside Cho Gue-sung – however, captain Son Heung-min can also play up front.
National team boss Jurgen Klinsmann is aiming to end a 64-year title drought for South Korea when the tournament kicks off on January 12.
South Korea will enter the competition finals in Group E meaning matches against Malaysia, Jordan and Bahrain in the first round.
The first match for South Korea is against Malaysia on January 15, then Jordan on January 20 and finally Bahrain on January 25.
Should South Korea progress then Oh and Yang will be missing for Celtic for a longer period with the final of the competition scheduled for February 10.
However, even if South Korea exit in the first round – which appears unlikely – Oh and Yang will still likely miss matches against Buckie Thistle and Ross County next month.
