As incredulous as it would seem, any truth linking us with Pogba? Free agent after his contract with Monaco was terminated. Would do a job for us!

Apparently we are now in advanced talks with Blackburn Rovers over the Hungarian goalkeeper Toth, with a fee of around £4m being discussed. One report specifically says we are pushing to get the deal completed and that an agreement is possible this week.
18 Aug 2026 20:07:35
This is all up in the air remember adam montgomary was in euro squad initially.
18 Aug 2026 20:08:29
Strange why Celtic can’t get the deal done a few days earlier and then he can be cover for the LASK.
Celtic are taking an unnecessary gamble having Doohan on the bench after his performance against Sporting in pre season.
He was released by Aberdeen but yet could find himself playing in the CL playoffs.
18 Aug 2026 21:22:00
I read earlier that Toth has verbally stated his preference is to join Celtic.
The fee, from what I've seen, would be £4M max (made up of the initial fee + add ons) and that seems to be what the bun fight is over given he's going into the last 12 months of his contract.
I've no idea how good a GK he may be but at 28yrs old and an international, I'm hopeful and we desperately need a GK to challenge Sinisalo for the starting spot.

I can understand clubs being reluctant to sell players this week if they have crucial European Qualifying playoff games to play but that isn’t the case with a Blackburn player.
It’s just the usual common denominator taking too long with negotiations.
17 Aug 2026 21:02:19
Reading tonight that Hatate has knocked back potential moves to any interested clubs in;- Greece, MLS or the Austrian Bundesliga, as he's apparently holding out for a top 5 move.
I can't help but think if he'd done thinks differently in the past 12-18 months, maybe one or two clubs in the top 5 leagues may have come in for him.
HH.
17 Aug 2026 22:23:10
Definitely, the fact Celtic are still paying his wages too, what if a top five doesn't even come for him.
18 Aug 2026 06:06:17
HH, I said that to people, Daizen wanted his move, played for it and got it, he scored the goal that won us the double, Reo downed tools and took the huff and now he’s not playing at all and very unlikely to attract the attention of any team with ambition.
18 Aug 2026 07:52:43
If we don't sign a midfielder I'd put hatate in with nygren and callum tomorrow night.
18 Aug 2026 11:12:15
Me to Mally,
18 Aug 2026 11:14:38
That's a big call Mally but I don't see MON risking playing Hatate - infact I would'nt be surprised if Hatate doesn't kick another ball for Celtic.
I think it'll be CalMac, Baur and Nygren. If that's the case, it's a huge game for Baur - who's just in the door.
As I mentioned yesterday, their captain, who's a central midfielder, seems to make things tick for his team.
Our bhoys need to take the game away from their midfield.
If their on their game, our front 3 could run them ragged.
HH.
18 Aug 2026 11:36:39
2 years left on his contract then he turns 30. No top 5 league club will want him then.
Very good player, wasted for the last 2 seasons.
18 Aug 2026 13:28:29
Just think hatate has something to prove to Martin and potential buyer, baur just through the door and will need time although he could start as he looked tidy on Saturday.
18 Aug 2026 15:04:53
Has Baur been registered in the sqaud for euro game? I know we could make 2 changes up till today.
18 Aug 2026 15:12:07
Mally
You watched him lately he's chucked it. Mental to think he's trustworthy tomorrow. All opinions i suppose.
18 Aug 2026 15:35:11
Johnb88,
we've registered a 25 man squad for the CL qualifying ties with the Auatrians, both Hassan and Baur are included in that squad.
HH.
18 Aug 2026 16:08:24
He's not played for a while so no but naybe he'd give us one of the performances we know he can.
18 Aug 2026 16:13:45
Hatate for me is a superb player but has chucked it as far as Celtic is concerned. If I was him I would sack the person that is filling his head with a top 5 league change. He has done nothing in the past season to justify a team from the top 5 would consider him.
And given the fact to me anyway that he has burnt his bridges at Celtic he is going to find it difficult.
18 Aug 2026 16:28:15
I think Hatate will be on the bench tomorrow and potentially used as impact sub. He recently let us down badly in Europe by stupidly getting sent off. Can't afford that tomorrow.
18 Aug 2026 18:59:54
For folk saying hatate has chucked it recently how long is recently because he’s barely played in months
Folk said he’s chucked it since the start of last season
When he came on at half time against Rangers last season did that look like a player who chucked it
Players have good and bad spells
Hopefully him and O’Neil have kissed and made up because an inform hatate with the quality we have signed is only good for us.
18 Aug 2026 22:30:20
He doesn’t want to be here get him gone and anyone else who wants to leave as well.
19 Aug 2026 07:02:17
Was it a Rangers game Hatate came back in for towards the end of last season and bossed it?
Think we routinely over egg the downing of tools stories. At least the evidence is never in the public domain.
Hatate may be needed in some capacity. Reckon he'll do his best if called upon.
19 Aug 2026 07:31:20
Watched him numerous times last season after United away. Boy wouldn't even warm up, head down doing the bare minimum. Folk want to trust him tomorrow.
Anyway its pointless he won't play. Bet anyone a wee charity bet he doesn't play for O'Neill again.
17 Aug 2026 16:32:59
Ed,
are you aware of any interest at all from Celtic regarding the potential signing of midfielder, Ermin Mahmic?
HH.
{Ed007's Note - Celtic have spoken to Mahmic's agent and to Slovan Liberec, but so have a heap of other clubs. There is a rumour that we are the only club so far to put in a bid and are actually negotiating with Slovan Liberec but I'm not sure how reliable that is.}
17 Aug 2026 18:27:39
As always Ed, at this juncture in the transfer window the specualtion intensifies, as you may be aware 😉.
A few stories online this evening stating that his agent/ representatives are negotiating his transfer with his new club which is why he was apparently pulled from playing by his current club.
As always, time will tell.
HH.
{Ed007's Note - 👍🏻🍀
17 Aug 2026 19:53:43
Ed do you think if we do sign Mahmic then we will cash in on Nygren? As we will have Mahmic, Baur and McCowan that can all play in CAM?
{Ed007's Note - I've not heard of any real "concrete" interest in Nygren and I'd be surprised if Celtic would sell him unless it was for crazy money. I'm thinking even though McCowan has not long extended his contract could he fall into the the group like Ralston/Forest/Doohan that are/were all just happy to be at Celtic 🤷🏻♂️
17 Aug 2026 08:31:26
Ed, any truth in the links with the young lad Paniagua? Supposedly we have been in contact with his agent.
I remember coming across him a few years back as he was being touted as one of the best teenagers in South America at the time. I know nothing about his progression though.
{Ed007's Note - His agent has came out and said there's been talks with us, Ajax and Ferencvaros. I think it could end up too complicated a deal as the club he is on loan at have an option to buy, so you're negotiating with 2 clubs over one player 🤷🏻♂️
17 Aug 2026 13:48:51
I saw that one and with the players we need at this stage of the window, any deal needs to be as straight forward as possible as the vlock is ticking.
I'm holding out hope that we can get Niko Sigur and one other midfielder over the line, as well as cover at LB and a GK.
A good win on Wednesday night with a few goals to spare won't do any harm.
HH.
17 Aug 2026 08:37:33
Heard emanalo has signed1 year loan.
17 Aug 2026 10:45:52
Why would his club agree to that?
17 Aug 2026 12:08:53
Chelsea rate the boy highly and don't want to sell so they are seeking loan deals for him.
17 Aug 2026 12:54:27
Sorry MT, mixing him up with the Bosnian guy 🤪.
15 Aug 2026 21:43:44
@DontLookBackInAnge. if you're still looking for somwhere to go before the game drop me a message on here how to get in touch with you or mail me at ed007@live. co. uk 👍🏻🍀.
15 Aug 2026 17:17:39
Panathanikos apparently interested in Hatate.
HH.
16 Aug 2026 11:26:39
£5m and he’s theirs, downed tools last season and clearly not in the manager’s plans, thanks Reo, enjoy Greece.
15 Aug 2026 17:05:27

New username since I forgot my password lol!
It’s KenLikeEh for anyone that remembers me!
Also, noticed we are in for Tosin Adarabiyo. That would be a quality signing in my opinion. 6ft 5 monster of a boy. Sign him up.
15 Aug 2026 09:36:44
Celtic will fight it out with wolves for Niko Sigur. While also still heavily interested in Gvidas Ginetis. Good to see we are not putting all our eggs in one basket for Engles replacement.
I think any move for Miguel Chaiwa would only be if we fail to get any of our top targets.
We are also keeping tabs on Ermin Mahmic but any move for him would only be sanctioned if we lose Nygren with plenty of teams across Europe interested in his services.
Although he played for blackburn last night the deal for Goalkeeper Balázs Tóth looks like it will go through, with personal terms already agreed. £4 million fee been mentioned.
Landon Emenalo looking Likley to sign. Only thing holding this back is a injury he has with Celtic waiting to see if that clears up before green lighting the move.
Celtic are open to loaning out Tounetki and bringing another Left winger in if they can.
15 Aug 2026 12:09:51
If young Sigur has any ambition then we'll see him in Paradise within the next fortnight.
HH.
16 Aug 2026 11:54:08
Why have we not even enquired about Patrik Berg from Bodo Glimt?, he is exactly the player we need in our midfield at the moment and he is only 27, he is better than the other midfield players we are being linked with, if we are willing to go to £10m for the Lithuanian boy, spend it on Berg.
16 Aug 2026 16:11:07
Although I'd love to see Berg in the Hoops, I'm guessing he doesn't fit our player signing model?
HH.
16 Aug 2026 19:27:33
Berg left Bodo before and it never worked out. He came back and has been a star player for them. If he left and it didn’t work out again and is reliant on Bodo taking him in, it might be seen as cheeky to a degree.
Maybe he’s comfortable there and earning a solid wage.
{Ed007's Note - I might be wrong but I'm sure Berg's partner didn't settle in France and Franck Haise's tendency not to trust players who hadn't played in the French league until they had proven themselves made up his mind to return to Norway.
I'd be surprised if Berg would even consider leaving Bodo/Glimt again, but of he did in the next 6/12 months I'd hope Celtic would be trying to get him - maybe Glasgow would suit his Mrs better.}
