Rocki away to Hanovver loan with option to buy.
1.) 04 Jul 2025 12:35:07
I am happy with that as he was not really involved in first team action and it frees up a place in the squad for us to get another CB in. I also think Lagerbielke (looks like Braga) and Welsh, will be moved on this window as well.
That would leave us with: CCV, Murray, Scales and Trusty and I reckon we could see another brought in for LCB.
2.) 04 Jul 2025 14:03:13
The punt from Japan is CH.
3.) 04 Jul 2025 14:34:27
Personally a think at least 1 is a must as they are fine for the league most time but in Europe need bette.
4.) 04 Jul 2025 15:41:05
I thought he was far better than the rest other than CCV. But Brendan didn't think the same. That's why I am not a manager but I am quite surprised that he never got a good try.
5.) 04 Jul 2025 20:48:56
Ideally I'd like to see an upgrade on CCV, a natural LCB brought in and sell Trusty.
I'd be surprised if an offer or two didn't come in for CCV before this window closes, if it was good enough, I'd take it.

6.) 05 Jul 2025 00:34:55
Imagine the club would probably have some preliminary enquiries about CCV if they were going to have a firm offer later on . Also Celtic would have a fair idea how CCV would react to a firm bid .
I don’t know whether CCV would be pushing hard to be sold . . For his ability he is getting plenty of success, an opportunity to play and demonstrate his ability in CL . He may not get the same elsewhere.
7.) 05 Jul 2025 21:39:02
With his recent injuries if the right bid came in for CCV, he could be away.
He's done well for Celtic and Celtic have done well for him, this summer his stock may well be at it's highest.
Time will tell.

Kuhn away to Como.
1.) 03 Jul 2025 16:45:28
On a bright note the bank balance csc. Will be celebrating tonight ?.
2.) 03 Jul 2025 17:24:29
Khun was signed for £2.8M and it looks like he will be sold for £16.3M.
It’s a very good profit considering Khun has only been at Celtic for 18 months.
Khun had a great wee spell at Celtic but we can’t make him stay if he wants to challenge himself in a much more competitive league.
It’s a win-win for both Khun and Celtic.
All the best in Italy.
3.) 03 Jul 2025 17:30:17
Ive been waiting on a big fee coming in. that should set the ball rolling for a couple of big signings at least.
4.) 03 Jul 2025 17:43:21
I've been invited to Pete's for a party ?.
5.) 03 Jul 2025 17:44:05
Yes Como pay 19m euro just over £16m.
6.) 03 Jul 2025 17:57:58
Would have been a sell on for rapid Vienna most likely as well.
7.) 03 Jul 2025 18:09:02
So, instability before big euro play off. Well done board, letting us down again as we know you won't reinvest.
{Ed007's Note - Instability over a game that is 6 weeks away because we sold a player that didn't want to be here and whose replacement we already have in the door, behave yourself.}
8.) 03 Jul 2025 19:00:04
I’m not sure this is instability, looks increasingly like there was more to poor end to season (downed tools when stock high after we put him, of course so did he in the spotlight) than we first thought, went
Missing in old firms after new year skelp, and Celtic allowing him to go shows exactly where we are as a club some fans need to get used to it and see the positives in our club even if it’s a stepping stone a successful place for growth, it’s not a step up so I’m assuming he just wants away, and big swede looks every bit the player and is fit ready to go, let’s trust our manager and club they’ve not given us a reason not too.
9.) 03 Jul 2025 19:00:47
Think this helps us getting rid of those who don’t want to be here and get a couple of starters in early, last pre-season and first half of season we were the best in 15 years - document, almost unbeatable during the early stages. I expect the same as Roger’s will have them drilled.
10.) 03 Jul 2025 22:01:50
So guys, we have virtually spent nothing so far. Now it looks as though Kuhn is going (Great bit of business in my humble opinion) how much do we realistically think we will spend this window. I know spending doesn't guarantee you success, but I would like the board to show BR that we want him to stick around. I think he will be away next summer anyway, but if we can now go out and part with 25/ 30m that would be a statement.
11.) 03 Jul 2025 22:38:29
Celtic spent £39M Euro last season ( €45.6M )
We brought in £48M in sales last season ( €56M )
12.) 04 Jul 2025 08:33:21
As ever I'll wait until the window is shut before judging it but we rarely have an actual net spend and we never match the fee received with what we spend on a replacement. So anybody expecting any of that should probably stop doing so now for their own health. I learnt this years ago.
13.) 04 Jul 2025 20:21:08
Do you think Nygren will play on the wing? I thought he was a number 10 and that he wasn’t the quickest.
Good player though.
14.) 05 Jul 2025 00:42:53
I was a wee bit surprised to read that we had played in the “old firms” last season .
09 Jun 2025 14:34:46
Medical booked for Callum Osmand. Fulham academy player.
1.) 09 Jun 2025 15:47:46
Pedro at it again with his pennies not pounds signings.
2.) 09 Jun 2025 16:28:30
Moussa Dembele and Matt O’Riley were both regulars for the Fulham U18s team and they were both good signings for Celtic.
3.) 09 Jun 2025 16:50:25
To replace Cummings who we never gave a chance? ??.
4.) 09 Jun 2025 18:31:49
Reports saying he will go into our first team.
If that is the case will he be kyogo's replacement or Kenny's replacement?
Are we happy with our 3 strikers being Idah, Kenny and Osmand?
I would say send Kenny on loan to the SPFL and let him develop more, as there is a player in there but don't think he is ready to hold down a starting place.
5.) 09 Jun 2025 19:30:31
DRB.
The Premier League 2 is a much higher level than the level Celtic B have been playing at, could be a shrewd bit of business by Celtic. 10 goals in 17 games for Osmand. Only beaten by Emre Tezgel and Donnelly McNeilly who’s stock continues to rise.
Cummings wanted to leave, Osmand wants to come and sign for the Celtic. I know the player id rather have.
6.) 09 Jun 2025 21:31:54
First player to score a hat trick in premier league 2 cup.
7.) 10 Jun 2025 06:00:44
Weejoe, I'd agree with you on Kenny going out on loan.
We need another first 11 ready striker in the door to compete with Idah for the starting slot.
☘️ ☘️ ☘️.
8.) 10 Jun 2025 13:02:02
Maybe we should send Idah on loan as one poster frequently posted Kenny was better than Idah .
I think within a few years we will know Osmande is a better striker than Cummings who insisted in leaving us for West Ham .
I wish Osmande every success at Celtic, I don’t expect too many appearances this coming season, but any progress is good and in 2/ 3 seasons he should be competing very strongly for playing time .
I don’t think there is any doubt that we won’t be buying a decent striker or a player who can play across the front 3 this summer.
09 Jun 2025 11:20:19
Taylor agrees to join PAOK.
1.) 10 Jun 2025 06:04:00
Not a done deal yet and if he's seriously thinking of moving his new wife and toddler to Greece for an extra £3K a week, for a 2 year deal, personally, I think it's a mistake. ?

2.) 10 Jun 2025 07:30:51
Pedro 71
Don't believe everything you see in the paper. Celtic haven't upped there offer since January.
3.) 10 Jun 2025 12:46:43
Pedro you talk about that as if its pennies. Wouldn't you move to a sunny location for an EXTRA £150k a year?
4.) 10 Jun 2025 22:31:06
Auf, I don't read the papers but thank you for the heads up.
HT, not pennies by any means. My point being, Taylor is already earning a very good salary in Glasgow, he's winning trophies and has a support network for his young family in Scotland, which he won't have in Greece.
Would I leave Celtic to play in Greece for an extra £150K per year?
No, not a chance. Why, because Iove Celtic and money isn't my God.

Lennon Miller? ?.
1.) 10 Jun 2025 15:37:40
What foot does he shoot with? There's social media talk the buns are in for him.
2.) 10 Jun 2025 16:27:01
His Dad is a Bluenose 9iar.
{Ed007's Note - I'm not saying Miller will end up at Celtic but he definitely won't end up at Ibrox - they can't afford him for a start - but there's a picture of a young Lennon Miller outside Celtic Park...
3.) 10 Jun 2025 16:43:55
Bring him home.
4.) 10 Jun 2025 16:47:09
He is a 'current' and if they are in for him we might have - once again - missed the boat. If the reports are true and not just wishful thinking by the hun-maedia?
5.) 10 Jun 2025 17:04:52
Bring him home Celtic and then start looking for a new LB, LCB, LW and striker.
6.) 10 Jun 2025 17:56:51
Just get a vibe he's one of them but the photo Ed sent suggests otherwise.
7.) 10 Jun 2025 18:42:13
He is too handsome to be a Sevie. ?
Also if you count his fingers and toes that should clear it up. ?.
8.) 10 Jun 2025 19:12:25
There is opposition to us signing a top. Fulham project on a free whilst many think we should pay £4 or £5 m or more for another youngster who may or may not develop to a top midfielder in years to come . Some think we should sign him and loan him back to Motherwell. I think we would be mad to. do that .
I think our next move should be strengthen our front 3 by either some one to play across line or a striker who should be at the top of our range. We need to decide who our first and second choice cbs will be .
9.) 10 Jun 2025 19:47:49
He suits wearing the Hoops.
Maybe his Mum or another family member is a Celtic fan.
Although his Dad was a Rangers fan,
He scored a goal against Rangers for Aberdeen in 2008 when Celtic were winning the league at Tannadice.
10.) 12 Jun 2025 09:57:07
He played for our youth team and knowing his dad he wouldn't be opposed to him returning to us although not his preferred choice.
30 Sep 2023 09:17:45
MOR New 4yr deal superb nees.
1.) 30 Sep 2023 10:07:31
MOR and Hatate tied up is brilliant stuff.
19 Jul 2022 08:01:10
If mooy and the reported CH is our transfer business. Have we improved in this window?
1.) 19 Jul 2022 08:12:45
Yes, because they would not be our only transfer business this window.
We've improved our GK position, LB position and we've secured CCV and Jota on permanent deals.
If we now add a back up CB and MF, as well as getting rid of more deadwood from the club, that's a very good window IMO.
☘️ ? ☘️.
2.) 19 Jul 2022 08:27:58
Maybe improved the squad but I don't believe we have improved the starting 11, what is a positive is that maeda and hatate had a rest and including o'riley are getting a preseason, Ange gets to implement all his work and the January singings fully get up to speed and the game plan. The young Argentinian left back who has only had a few games so I won't knock him to early as still young, I can't see him be a starter. Think it was key to get the deadwood out the club and by the singings Ange done in January made it easier for the summer. Think it's going to be a great season and can't wait.
3.) 19 Jul 2022 09:05:28
Remember jota and cv weren't our players and if as expected the new lb is an improvement and mooy could well make a difference I feel we're improving and have far better strength in depth,
4.) 19 Jul 2022 10:12:16
dont think the team we put on the field will be better than last season.
5.) 19 Jul 2022 11:14:23
Sorry dillits don’t agree, know we have lost Bitton an Rogic but squad looking much better than this time last season.
Don’t see us trailing by 6 pts end of September, most likely be sitting top by 3or 4 points.
Fans were. always wanting business done in winter break. so as players coming in got good preseason, Ange did that.
Still be players to join before transfer window closes.
Looking forward to next season.
6.) 19 Jul 2022 11:46:05
Every player is getting a pre season which is massive in itself, and we're actively bringing players in but it's the usual negative comments, wait till the season starts then judge.
7.) 19 Jul 2022 11:52:48
dillits- disagree 100%. We might not have signed a "new" first team ready player yet, but Hatate, Kyogo, GG, Maeda, turnbull, Abada, to name only a few will take their games to a new level this year. Might wonder why I said kyogo but I believe the wee man will get even better with the support he will receive. Compare this team to lasts aug/ sept/ Oct team. Light years of a difference.
8.) 19 Jul 2022 11:48:35
Come on guys.
First full pre season behind most of them
It will be an improvement.
And all on the same page plus rested.
All you read on the other past rangers will win the league.
But there is no evidence especially after last year.
They only win the season afore as we where down and on our knees players have downed tools etc. It was riduclouse what these player did. and got away with. But we made a lot of money off them.
Yes we never got the 10.but remember it's another 9 in a row. Which is another amazing achievement let's not forget that.
9.) 19 Jul 2022 13:46:34
i think the question refers to our transfer business, not about any preseason or other stuff and in my opinion the players we field are not better than what we had last year also i keep seeing good things are expected from hatate and again i disagree as a don't think the lad has the toughness for a season in the scottish game, its not long ago he was crying that because he scored two crackers againt the gers that everyone was out to get him, and when watching him i think he was apprehensive when tackled even submissive.
10.) 19 Jul 2022 14:02:10
What a lot of twaddle dollies, sounds like your on the wrong site ?.
11.) 19 Jul 2022 14:30:03
If you knew anything about football you'd know pre season is massive, the new lb is just through the door but he's not good enough we have jota and ccv on permanent deals which gives you 2 happy players, you've or seen mooy or jenz sigriest is a tremendous back up keeper, as for hatate av not got a clue what your on about oh and he's been rested and had a pesky pre season ?.
12.) 19 Jul 2022 14:40:48
i do know how important a preseason is but i stand by my opinion that we are not stronger player wise than last season.
13.) 19 Jul 2022 14:56:20
I understand what you are saying
@ dillits.
The first 11 players should be at there peak now.
For the first time in there short celtic carear.
Don't you remember the first few months at the begining of the season it was a sticking plaster case.
we had a threadbare team new players injuries and we could not wait till the transfer season to start.
Then ange strengthened us.
But the summer before the first transfer window we strengthened then we got riddled with injuries. So that's a strengthening right there.
As for more players coming in. maybe one more for me a holding central defender tough no messing about about.
Then hopefully new youth lads sitting on bench get there minutes.
14.) 19 Jul 2022 15:24:16
It's hard to make that assessment Andy when 3 of our signings nobody has hardly seen, a don't buy it.
15.) 19 Jul 2022 15:44:40
Have we signed Messi? No
What we do have is a team that was essentially cobbled together from all over the place who now have a winning mentality. A team that not only trusts in the manager to deliver (massive btw) but now trust even more in their team mates. They have a season under their belts where they were dropped into Sensei Angelos's system without being comfortable with it - they now know that system and the expectations placed upon them. Knackered players have had time to recharge and pre-season will take some of those players to new heights. Guys that were signed last season will have a settled home life and routine and maybe a favourite bookies or Indian! They are a year older in their heads, a yard faster in their legs and hopefully (MJ) have a better physique. Partnerships that were shakey have been solidified and a mental map created about where their team mates will be in a certain situation on the park.
Lastly, they know Sensei is not dicking about - let him down and it's the B team.
We haven't signed Messi - the faces in the team will not be radically different - but everything else will be.
Are we a better team - you betcha.
Are we as good as we think we are? That is another question!
16.) 19 Jul 2022 16:19:50
Cheers for reply troops. Personally don't think our starting 11 is stronger. Our squad on paper is stronger if new players are what Ange expects. No fan of the board but give them credit they haven't sold the crown jewels yet.
