Supposedly we're "battling" Newcastle for Uruguay playmaker Giorgian De Arrascaeta who is valued at £18M. If that's his price then it's completely made up or he's not coming to us 👍🏻.

I just read they paid 3.6 for him and are looking for over 5.
16 Jul 2018 17:30:24
Celts Are Here are saying they're wanting upwards of £5m for him.
{Ed007's Note - I can't see that, Monaco were ready to pay about 25 million Euros for him and he's not long signed a new contract with Cruzeiro as well with the aim of maximising his transfer fee.}

Never going to happen. The wait for strengthening the side continues.

We should be looking for defenders in South America, Argentinians or Uruguayans, cb’s and fb’s .

It's alright saying that drewzy but remember it's harder for a work permit here than other countries.
{Ed007's Note - But it's easier in Scotland than it is in England.}

He has an Italian passport according to Transfermarkt. wouldn't need a work permit. If the money is closer to £9 million we may be an interesting proposition for him. Im sure Suarez would rave about working with Rodgers.

Not for long ed.

I can't see it personally. Not with the squad atm. Maybe with the forthcoming chat we may look to offload Allen and Christie? And with possibly Mikey Johnston off on loan we will need someone capable of playing behind the striker in any position and signing McGinn too.

I hope not, have you seen his videos does not look like a player of top quality. Even look where he places a shot, ever one is hit and hope. Compare it to Morgan's last season video night and day.

With Liam Hendersons club folding I can see him going back to Hibs for noting which might make the McGinn transfer a bit easier.
