Pundit claims 75-cap international ‘would be a great fit’ for Celtic next season
Former Wolves keeper and pundit Matt Murray has urged Joe Hart to join Celtic this summer. The 33-year-old is out of contract and he has been linked with the Hoops. A free transfer to Celtic could be ideal for both parties. Celtic need to bring in a quality keeper for the next season and they have been linked with Southampton’s Fraser Forster as well. However, the finances of the deal could complicate any move. Hart would be a relatively cheaper option.

Nicolas Pepe put the Gunners ahead from the spot 25 minutes into the game, but the hosts equalized through David McGoldrick in the 87th minute and it had appeared that they had forced the game into extra time. However, Dani Ceballos’ 91st-minute winner snatched victory at the death, and Manchester City now stand between Arsenal and a place in the F.A Cup final. Scottish left-back Kieran Tierney put in a top performance against the Blades, and he was responsible for Arsenal winning the penalty after his pass found Alexandre Lacazette in the box before he got fouled. The former Celtic star took to Instagram to comment after the hard-fought victory, and his former teammate Scott Brown ...
