Quick one Ed, or any one in the know. Is Odin Holme surplus to requirements at Celtic Park. I know he has been plagued with injurues. He was an unused sub for Lafc against chelsea and it looks like he has only made 5 appearances for them. I'd presume if he was in the plans he'd be back at ourselves by this stage.
1
{Ed007's Note - It's on odd one for me, we extended his deal before he went on loan and he recently said he was aiming to come back and play for Celtic. He's had some injury problems even when he was here and there was some rumours it was just he needed to toughen up a bit, so maybe he will get a chance in preseason to show if that's improved. I don't think there was ever any doubts behind the scenes about his ability, maybe a bit like Nawrocki, he just weasn't showing up in training and passing the beep tests etc}

Thanks Ed. Your opinion is greatly appreciated. Hopefully gets his head down. Liked what I seen from his brief appearances.

Will he be in for pre-season Ed? I thought he'd joined on loan until the end of the MLS.

It was a good idea up until that point. All the noise about him was great when we signed him but it often is with these more left field players. He's not exactly setting it alight at LAFC. Would still like to see more of him but can see him being moved on.

{Ed007's Note - He seems to have plenty of confidence in his own ability, I've no idea where he gets that from.}

That’s good to read weejoe . I thought he had slipped off the radar.

Looking forward to seeing the boy, certain people on a certain podcast have already written the boy off before he has signed.
No wonder we don't give young boys a chance, the first mistake they make and they are classed as a dud.

{Ed007's Note - There used to be old cliches that every player is judged on his last game, every boxer on his last fight and every singer on his last song. There's a lot of Celtic players that are judged on their last touch of the ball.
I've made no secret about my wish for us to sign Lennon Miller bu tthe lad will need thicker skin than Kat Slater's arse to handle the humping and hawing if he misplaces a pass.}

Ed) are we still in the running to get Miller this window?
Motherwell will not allow him to go for nothing next summer window.

{Ed007's Note - Unless Lennon Miller has let it be known he has no interest in signing for Celtic then yes.}

@Edoo7 - I was wondering how that sentence was going to finish "I've made no secret about my wish for us to sign Lennon Miller bu tthe lad will need thick skin than Kat Slater's arse to handle the humping. ".

The Lennon Milller transfer, unless he signs a new contract is an interesting situation. Motherwell currently holds his registration and believe they are in control of his destiny.
However they are not .
I imagine the clubs that are interested in him, Celtic, EPl clubs, Championship Clubs and European.
Most of these clubs have probably dealt with the buying and selling of very gifted youngsters more than Motherwell.
It would be awful for Motherwell to fend off interested clubs too long and for the market to change and all of a sudden he signs for some club on a fee from 30th June next year.

Napoli have bid £26.5m for O'Reilly, does anyone know if we have a sell on clause?
1
{Ed007's Note - It was widely reported we had a 10% sell on clause in the O'Riley deal, that'll be worth £150k to us at that price.}

19 Jun 2025 11:51:06
As expected Celtic are linked to umpteen potential incomers. I don't watch much beyond the Bhoys and have little idea who'd be good for us.
Any particular links we should get excited about?

Nygren looks the part so does the Belgian winger.

Every pundit and their granny trying to steer miller away from celtic, I fear they may get their way.

I've had my doubts for a while because it has been dragged out and becoming overly complicated. We shall see?

18 Jun 2025 12:36:54
Never say never. Remember Broonie was going to them and look what happened. But deep down, I can't see him coming to us.
3
18 Jun 2025 12:37:15
No way will he sign for us to sit on the bench.
He will end up in Italy.

18 Jun 2025 14:34:52
The Rangers can’t afford to get into an auction with us for Miller so if he doesn’t want to sign for us he will leave Scotland .

Japanese cb being rumoured, story coming from Stephen McGowan, only 5.11 and his stats aren't great.
1
16 Jun 2025 14:29:45
Japanese players seem to struggle with the physical side of the game, a see Edd the boy you mentioned from serbia being linked again,17yr old do you like the look of him mate av nvr seen him.
4
{Ed007's Note - I've honestly never seen Veljko Milosavljevic play apart from YT etc mate, but people who know better than me say he is a great young player and only going to get better. He's a big unit for 17-years old at 6ft3 and pretty solid for someone so young.}
1
16 Jun 2025 15:26:02
Yeah he does, valued at £8m so ad imagine if we wer in the running he must be ready for 1st team hopefully.
2
{Ed007's Note - Milosavljevic turns 18 later this month and although it seems a lot of money it's like a Lennon Miller type signing, they're good enough domestically and they'll get game time but will need time to fulfil their potential.
It goes against me thinking CCV will leave this window but bringing in Milosavljevic as his back up for a year would be the ideal scenario. But if CCV does leave I can't see us signing the young Serb as we will need a higher standard to immediately replace CCV.
I don't even want to suggest we sign a CCV replacement AND Milosavljevic 😂😂
0
16 Jun 2025 16:15:08
Reports saying board confident of keeping Ccv, if reports true about young Serb your 100% about keeping Ccv for that particular reason but apart from that am not to bothered if we do sell him as long as we bring experience in.

16 Jun 2025 17:08:34
I don’t think a Japanese cb will ever make it at Celtic playing SPL, football.
In Scotland attacking players can throw their weight around without SPL ref penalising . No other league is as lenient and certainly not Japanese .
Trusty couldn’t handle the robust approach.

17 Jun 2025 10:18:23
Gut feeling isn't great with this one. I feel like his name will be on those lists of CBs where we top up the combined fees and ask why we didn't sign somebody more proven. His numbers defensively don't look great. Aerial duels won are near 50/ 50 I read. Not surprising when he's the same height as my gran. Certainly doesn't look like an exciting full back either. Then somebody will say don't write the lad off before he's kicked a ball. Just as they did with all the others. Hopefully this isn't our only CB being brought in. He just seems like versatile cover to me.
2
18 Jun 2025 14:53:52
He must have some top qualities. I don’t think we would be chasing a Haoanese player for the craic . It’s not like when Ange was here when we were buying Japanese players by the car load.

Guys i see Roma are interested in Matt O'Riley - if he moves do we have a % sell fee.

15 Jun 2025 22:01:33
I'd be surprised peterbhoy if we didn't, it's a pretty standard clause these days.

10% I believe.

How much are Roma paying?

16 Jun 2025 10:51:02
Don't think Brighton will make much profit so will be suprised if we make any money.
1
16 Jun 2025 17:14:35
Brighton will be doing well to avoid a loss .
We need to hope our next few sales do better than most of our recent sales . Clubs world wide will notice that recently clubs buying players from us are getting poor value for their £ and will reduce the amount they pay usc.

Can someone explain the sell on clause percentage and profit scenarios? I've read many articles on this and it states sell on clause are inserted with a view of getting that percentage of the entire future sale, not the percentage of the profit the club made.
So are we setting up clauses to receive percentages of profit, or percentage of future sale, or are we guessing?
Below is directly from me searching:-
No, a sell-on clause is generally not void if a player is sold for less than the original transfer fee. A sell-on clause is a contractual agreement where the selling club receives a percentage of any future transfer fee if the player is sold again. This clause is triggered by the future sale, regardless of whether that sale is for more or less than the initial transfer.
Here's why:
Purpose of the clause:
Sell-on clauses are designed to benefit the original selling club when a player's value increases after they leave, not to penalize them if the player's value decreases.
Future transfer:
The clause is activated upon a future transfer, not the initial sale. The original selling club is still entitled to the agreed-upon percentage of the new transfer fee, even if it's lower than the original fee.
Example:
If Club A sells a player to Club B for £10 million with a 20% sell-on clause, and then Club B sells the same player to Club C for £15 million, Club A gets $3 million (20% of £15 million) . If Club B sells the player for £8 million, Club A still gets £1.6 million (20% of £8 million) .
So the percentage of profit or percentage of enitre sale is baffling.

{Ed007's Note - Every sell-on clause I've ever heard of and according to the late great Ed002 it is a percentage of the profit.

Just want the club to start making announcements ASAP as the amount of speculation of numerous pending arrivals is 'heid-burstin'.
Especially the amount of ex-players that are linked with a return.

The more i have been thinking about it, the more i can see the talk of Evan Ferguson coming in on loan becoming reality.
Several reasons why it makes sense for Celtic, Brighton and the player himself.
It makes sense for Celtic as it will save the club millions on having to buy another striker while still bringing in a big name on loan. This is the type of move our board will be creaming themselves over.
It makes sense for Brighton as he has a serious confidence crisis and needs game time at a lower level to regain fitness and confidence. We are likely one of Brightons preferred destinations for him.
And finally it makes sense for Ferguson himself as he would see us as somewhere he could easily score goals and get his career back on track. Also a chance to win trophies and play european football.
I do think if he had a good pre season he would coast it in Scotland. Although he looks lost, there is a serious talent in there. A mixture of fitness and injury issues and shocking bad management from brighton has cost him 2 years of his career.
Even though i can see this move happening, i am in no way for it though, as there would be no way we could afford to buy him if his loan was a success. But keep an eye on this, i wouldn't rule it out!

13 Jun 2025 16:45:16
I remember him scoring a brilliant Hat-Trick in the EPL a couple of seasons ago and thinking he was going to be the next big thing.
2
{Ed007's Note - We had Evan Ferguson over for trials when he was younger and I remember when he signed for Brighton a few Irish lads saying that was on odd move for him. There was talk of him going for £100m a couple of years ago so there's absolutely no chance of us buying him outright and for me he hasn't got that star/special quality I'd be looking at for any loan striker.
Why should Celtic be used as rehab for a player who has lost his way/confidence, so he comes up here, finds his mojo again and goes back down south and suddenly worth £80m-100m again and we're back to square one looking for a striker.}
7
13 Jun 2025 18:22:26
The only way we should consider this would be if there was an option to buy, at a price we could afford to pay.
I don’t see the point in developing some on else’s asset when we have our own players who will develop with game time like Idah.

{Ed007's Note - Spot on 👍🏼👍🏼

13 Jun 2025 19:00:13
Already said I don't want him and nothing has changed. Would be raging if we wasted money on a loan for him.

I don’t want him either, he thinks he is better than he is . His father is Barry Ferguson, ok he isn’t the Barry we all loved or hated, his father played in the league of Ireland for a long time .
Seriously Evan made it clear that although he liked Celtic he didn’t want to play in SPL.

To me, it would make sense, to get him on a year's loan, if he finds his form, we would have solved our striker problem, for a season at least, as long as our contribution to his wages is workable.

Lots of Rumours about CCV leaving
Would you approve of club selling him?
What I think as long as we sign an improvement centre half, I would sell him for mainly these reasons, this is probably final chance for club to get decent money for him, anything above £10m, also he has been more injury prone last two seasons and has also made some defensive mistakes.
Yes this Tim says sell BUT ONLY if we bring in someone better.
2
13 Jun 2025 12:43:18
I'd sell anybody if it was a chance for somebody better.
4
13 Jun 2025 13:44:07
If the money is good then I'd sell.
2
13 Jun 2025 15:13:54
He's a solid cb but I do think he os a little over rated. Would still rather keep him as replacing him with guanteed quality will cost 20+ million. Anything less than that is a gamble.
0
13 Jun 2025 15:33:54
I would rather not sell CCV unless its for a ridiculous price. We already need a CB to take scales/ trustys spot so i don't like the thought of us having to replace both CB spots. Too much of a gamble.
Id like us to go for Dara O'shea or highly rated Czech CB Martin Vitik to partner CCV.
And im also for bringing Ajer back if the price is right, but only if he is to play as a DM. He is exactly what we need beside Calmac in Europe.
0
{Ed007's Note - Vitik would be a fantastic signing and I know that we have scouted/watched him but with teams like Napoli sniffing about it might be a big ask to get him in here.}
1
13 Jun 2025 16:12:01
You are right ed, it is very unlikely as half of europe will be sniffing about him, but he is exactly the type of CB we should be going for. I think he may be into his last year so the fee shouldn't be an issue for us.
1
{Ed007's Note - He does only have a year to run on his deal. Fiorentina supposedly had a €10m bid rejected last summer and I think it might take that kind of money still but he's worth that imo.}
1
13 Jun 2025 16:52:10
I love CCV and I want him to stay.
But I would be looking for someone better to partner him, which would help us step up a gear.
It would also need to be a left footer.
It’s not a coincidence that when we play Central defenders in their natural position that we give away less penalties, due to the defender leading with his natural foot in the box.
0
13 Jun 2025 18:39:24
I think CCV is extremely underrated in what he brings to our team. CCV, McGregor and Maeda are the spine of our recent successes.
I would prefer to keep the big man but can see the rational if an offer of £20M or above came in as it could be reinvested.
2
13 Jun 2025 19:58:07
My tuppence worth re CB position.
If CCV stays, we need better than CCV to partner him, let alone better than Scales or Trusty.
If CCV is sold, I believe we require two first team starting CB's.

CCV has been caught out too often against the Sevconian and in Europe. We could get better.
