The Japanese forward has made no secret of an ambititon to play in England throughout his time at Parkhead.
He continues to be linked with a move away and says he feels the timing is now right.
At a press conference unveiling his autobiography, the 28-year-old said: "I’ve always said that I want to play in the Premier League.
"In terms of timing (for a transfer), I think this is the right time.
"But you never know what will happen."
Maeda, however, acknowledged the challenge posed by his age, saying: "But it’s difficult because I’m 28 years old, and when I talk to people, it’s kind of a ‘hmm’ feeling."
He remains open to offers.
