Use our rumours form to send us celtic transfer rumours.

29 May 2011 23:47:59
Paddy McCourt to Barcalona in a swap deal involving Messi & £50M. FACT - my grannies neghnours cat works in the ticket office and said its done deal.
Also heard a rumour that Wayne Rooney is coming in to replace Sami-Arse as he is off to Real Madrid for around £25M. . . .got to go as there bringing my medication now! !

some of the posts on here are a good laugh but get real, Celtic & rangers for that matter with spend aound £5-6M + what ever comes in from sales. . . both teams have 2 rounds before they get to the group stages in CL/Uefa Cup so there isn't a great deal of cash to spend.
Celtic will be letting quite a few players leave, mostly guys not eeded in the squad anymore, the only player who will attract big money interest are:
Hooper - newcastle & sunderland both looking at him for £5M
Kayal - Everton, Villa & Liverpool all linked with a £8m bid.
Izzy -several teams thought to be looking at him for about £8M - Liverpool(again), arsenal, spurs
none of these players will be sold

{Ed007's Note - IMO I think Kayal and Izzy will stay for at least another year. Though AW is playing hardball with Nasri and Clichy over contracts so that could force Arsenal to bid a little higher than the estimate to force a sale for Izaguirre. As for Hooper I would be really surprised to see him leave this summer as I know he is settled and happy and can see the team is young and getting stronger. He is enjoying life at the club and is settling into the "Celtic way" like Weiss and the "Rangers way". If Hooper leaves it will be purely for the financial aspect of any deal for the good of the club and the player. That is my opinion and based on facts I know, for all the people that dissect every post on here awaiting to pounce on any discrepancies}

Just on the fact of celtic having 2 rounds before group stage, its actually only 1 round lol, read up before you try n argue your case with inproper facts

"celtic will sign pablo piatti on the cheap from relegated almeria and also interest in guardado"

Piatti would be a cracking signing as he's a good player and very highly rated but it won't happen. IMO he'll end up moving to one of the better Spanish sides e.g. Valencia (who might lose Juan Mata and need cover there), Espanyol (pretty small squad), Villareal, Sevilla or Atletico. In fact I think most of these clubs have tried to sign him before but obviously relegation will likely cause the move.

Guardado IMO is a similar story.

I have watched 2 games today , and have seen a few players who would do Celtic a real turn , Craig Mackail-Smith , George Boyd (both Scotland recruits) and centre-half Ryan Bennett of Peterbrough in the first game , and Robbie , Simon Cox (WBA) and Stephen Kelly (Fulham) along with Shay Given tonight .

Believable2 Unbelievable0

We;ve been linked with Cox & boyd before i'm sure

not saying this will happen however i have it from source that in an ideal world, if celtic could have their way, this would happen. . . mcginn out and ross mccormack in. forrest out on loan. o'dea back but only if he accepts he is back up. keane in for a year and hooper and stokes to compete and learn from him. samaras out and carew in on a free to push the other 3 forwards. brown mccourt commons mccourt mccormack maloney are the midfield but, the club are also joking with each other, i say joking not thinking at this stage, of the notion of charlie adams and brown being the next murdoch and auld. this is reliable but only celtics thinking not what they will do.

Believable0 Unbelievable1

Absolute belter m8. . charlie adam at celtic. lol.lol. .do you think berbatov and jelavic could lead the hoops forward line next saeson?

Agree0 Disagree0

Adam has proved his quality in the EPL this season and if leeny goes for him he would be welcome with open arms.doubt it would ever happen tho as he is blue through and through

We aren't playing at least one European game behind closed doors because of the fans continual failure to behave themselves. I just hope it doesn't affect your qualification for the CL.

Ed007 since u know everything about ur club yez ave 1 round to play be4 the group stages so get ur facts right pal isolated ha ha ur own manager had to come out an have a word about the songs u sing as well so don't geez ur p mate u aint got a clue lets see if u post this yin coz ur wrong wrong wrong {Ed007's Note - What's your source on qualification? I merely repeated what I have heard, seeding etc has still to be determined. Obviously you know a lot more about Celtic than me as there seems a lot of Rangers fans have a perverse obsession with Neil Lennon. For a club facing the dilemnas that Rangers have I would think you would have more to worry about like who Rangers have employed at the moment with the legal know how about conducting any transfer activity. The man who dealt with this has been suspended over financial irregularities, so I seriously doubt that there will be any signings soon. As in any employment scenario if an employee is suspended or under notice of termination their position can not be filled until there is a satisfactory outcome to the problem. Or as I someone posted on the RFC pages about why the greatest ever Ranger was and is sceptical about Mr Whytes takeover. Seems strange that so many Rangers fans could turn so quickly on one of their own. Post me a a link to the qualification scenario for Europe and I will duly apologise. I was partaking of some banter with a decent Rangers fan and you have butted in with a child like input, and once again shown the way Rangers fans seem to be obsessed with all things Lennon. That is a bet you have lost, if you leave your e-mail address I will pass it on so that I can collect my winnings from your good self, seeing as you did not have the common courtesy to leave a name. Is that everything covered...............for now}

Agree0 Disagree0

Get in there the ED, The darkside are so obsessed about our manager it's scary!
They have just won 3iar, but the thing they all want to talk about is the LURGAN LION ! If Lenny was useless they wouldn't care, but they know, and we know, That Lenny was a winner as a player, and will be a winner as a manager!
LENNY, THE MAN THEY CAN'T IGNORE!

maloney's a class act in his own head what@ happened to the wee man he get's injured going to see the the physios
marty bhoy

Believable0 Unbelievable0

29 May 2011 16:05:18
why you don't like maloney? he s a class, fast, and a good dribbler. if he will play the next season like the first part of the last season, then we will extend the contract untill 2014. . mon the hoops. Maloney's the best

Believable1 Unbelievable2

Yeah on his day. If he can't be bothered he's utterly useless. Not the same level of inconsistency as Samaras but it happens.

The other reason is that he spends too much of his time injured and therefore can't be relied on. The reason he didn't play the cup final was an injury, only as he was getting "blooded back in" to first team football (i.e. the odd 2nd half appearance for 15-20 min). In a squad of players you need multiple players for each position. If Commons gets injured I don't think we'd necessarily be able to rely on McCourt (rarely lasts 90 min, injury prone), Forrest (right sided, young and inexperienced) or McGinn (right sided, young, injury prone, not played much so may not fit the team's system) if Maloney's out.

Agree0 Disagree0

See what i mean the celtic jed. .these people are just as spaced out as me. it lifts my spirits

Matt Gilks might be on a free now sorry didn't check up but stephen said he was £1.75m and west ham are wanting quite a lot for demba ba because he only signed in january

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Matt Gilkes is free, if McGregor goes he would be a good replacement.Ally should make a point of saying McGregor is Scotland number 1 now.And that Gordon left Hearts for 9 million.So if they come up with 12 million he might go away and think about it.And if they do not, then they do not really want him.Villa are rich and paid silly money for Bent.

Hey Guys I love this page check it everyday to see what the rumors are! Personally I don't have any transfer rumors as I don't have a mate that works in a burger van at Parkhead or in the ticket office lol
As I fan I would like to see Lenny bring in at least 6 players this summer a good goalkeeper good centerhalf, attacking right back to good wingers and a target man upfront.
Also I would like our scouts to head to Brazil there is so much young talent out there! It's a market all the big European teams tap into look at Porto they have made a habit of picking up good young brazilians getting a few great seasons out of them then selling them on for a huge profit!
Players I would sign
Goalkeeper- Given/Man City
Center half- Douglas/FC Twente
Attacking right back- Felipe Mattioni/Espanyol
Right winger-Larsson/Birmingham
Left winger-Biseswar/Feyenoord
Target man-Van Wolfswinkel/Utrecht
Lastly I would love to see Celtic make a bid for Fernandiho of Shakhtar best player I've seen grace the parkhead pitch outside the big European teams Lenny will know him well as he run circles round him! His contract is up at end of next season could get him for a bargain!

Keep the rumors coming

Hail hail

Believable1 Unbelievable0

Liked your comment re the brazillian( scuse the pun ) but the problem with young brazillians is that they would struggle with work permits Porto have different rules re work permits also the Russians too & also the Dutch that's why you see a lot of them heading there ! {Ed007's Note - They usually hang around to get dual nationality then move on if bigger teams. Manchester United use Royal Antwerp in Belgium to get around work permit issues}

Agree0 Disagree0

Absoultely marvellous. .lol. . keep her lite. 4 mill for a championship player. its gettin better. im sure you cost your mother a fotune in crayons when you were filling job applicatoin forms in. long live the celtic supporters. lol. life wud be dull without you. .

Agree0 Disagree0

29 May 2011 13:50:04
We may not take a £4m chance on a championship player? That sounds a bit like football snobbery. Does that mean that if reading get to the epl then it would be less of a gamble?

Im having a good laugh to myself here Ive read the rangers pages and now the celtic pages and you know I, d say there is little between the ears of the
majority of the tit for tat contributions to the pages
of both clubs and as for the problem of sectarianism alex salmond would be better trying to sort out how we are all going to keep going for the next year than bother with anti-sectarianism laws( more political window dressing in my opinion) the upshot of all this is both clubs season tickets sales are assured for years to come as the capacity for clear thinking seems to have been drummed out of both groups of fans and I further think that either club can't hold itself up as paragons of virtue so why don't both clubs put up and shut up we don't need this rubbish in the real world. . thank you.

so joe harts understudy can't get a game and wants to come to parkhead for one last payday? no thanks we need young players whom want to prove themselves

Believable1 Unbelievable1

Never call Shay Given a joe hart understudy hes far better than joe hart its just cus hes english and Givens the 3rd best keeper in the Prem

Agree0 Disagree0

No we need a keeper who has plenty experience who can help our defence out - given be ideal, plus these guys coming up here have plenty cash roy keane etc - but being here and doing it is the main attraction i'd say. .

Agree0 Disagree0

How do we need young players that want to PROVE themselves? we need experianced internationals who will do a job and shay given is still one of the best keepers in the premiership bar none, ad take him before forster anyday of the week!

Agree0 Disagree0

I don't think we need given. i personally think he is well past it and that's the reason y he aint getting a game at eastlands anymore. .do you really think mancini cares if hes english or irish???dont talk gash he picks them on performances and proffesionalism and obviously he doesn't think shay is a good as he used to be or he would be number 1 but he aint and yet again if we sign him itll just be us signing anyone who happens to play for ROI again. . personally i hope we have a good young SCOTTISH keeper coming through the ranks as all these foreigners are draining us of much needed cash and i include the likes of given in that foreigners term. .just stay away from parkhead with your overinflated head and salary and your gash about wanting to play for the hoops its aw pash! !
