Report: Celtic have expressed their interest in signing youngster, Everton keen as well
Celtic are interested in signing the Stoke City youngster Mohamed Sankoh this summer. As per Football Insider, they have already expressed their interest in the striker who is being looked at by Everton and Chelsea as well. 16-year-old is highly rated by Stoke City and it will be interesting to see if they sanction a move away this summer. A move to Celtic would be a step up for Sankoh and he is likely to be tempted if the Scottish giants come calling. The Hoops have a very good track record of signing young players and developing them into first team stars. Sankoh will be hoping to follow a similar path to the first team if he joins the Scottish giants. Sankoh is yet to sign professional terms with Stoke and Celtic will be able to sign him for a nominal compensation fee. It will be intere...
‘Rangers could catch them’ – Ex-Gers boss insists Celtic mustn’t be handed title
Former Rangers manager Ally McCoist wants the Scottish Premiership to complete its campaign, insisting that there is still a chance that Rangers could catch Celtic at the top of the table. With 13 points clear at the top of the table ahead of Rangers, the Parkhead outfit are favourites to land the title again, and a majority of the Scottish top flight clubs have already voted to end the season and declare them champions. Hoops fan Sir Rod Stewart has blasted Rangers for being “childish” after insisting that the campaign must be completed once it is safe to do so, claiming he would want Celtic to give the Light Blues the league if they were 13 points in front with only eight games to go. McCoist doesn’t agree with him, though, insisting the Old Firm duo both want the campaign to resume. “Th...
Popular pundit is sure ‘Celtic and Rangers are looking’ at 23-goal star this summer
Aberdeen striker Sam Cosgrove has been in fine form this season and Noel Whelan believes that the likes of Rangers and Celtic will be keen on him. The 23-year-old has scored 23 goals so far this season and he would be a superb addition to either side. Both Morelos and Edouard have been linked with a move away this summer and if they do move on, Celtic and Rangers should look to bring Cosgrove in. Whelan said to Football Insider: “I am sure they will have their eye on him but they will face competition from a lot of Championship teams. “He has had a very good season. A goalscorer who will be at the right price and the right age. He is not even in his best years yet. “A player that has a lot of improving to do and could be a good commodity and a good buy for many clubs. He will not cost a ma...
‘I’m currently watching 240 players’ – Celtic chief makes massive claim
Celtic’s new head of recruitment Gary Penrice has claimed that the Hoops are currently monitoring 240 players as they look to make quality additions to their squad this summer and going forward. Hoops head of football operations Nicky Hammond brought in the former Leicester City, Stoke City and Everton scout last month, and despite the suspension of major footballing activities across the globe as a result of the coronavirus pandemic, he has continued to keep tabs on prospective signings. The Celtic chief scout has been working with the Parkhead club in a consultancy basis since December, and has now been fully tasked with unearthing hidden gems. “Celtic’s market is absolutely huge. It’s global. I am currently watching 240 players,” Penrice told Bristol Live. “Obviously I can’t travel to s...
