Sly reporter tweeting Celtic made enquiry for Colley Sampdoria. Celtic denied any bid last week.

Ronnie has been pretty spot on in terms of his Celtic coverage this season. Must be something in it, have you heard anything on Colley ED? First enquiry went in this week.

{Ed007's Note - I don't know of any bid but Celtic have previously scouted Colley and asked his agent to keep us up to date on his situation. I really don't see any deal for Colley happening.
Omar Colley (CB) A Plan B to Martin Hinteregger for Southampton. Roma were keen but opted for Gianluca Mancini who was seen as a better fix for perhaps a little less money. Newcastle and West Ham have shown an interest in talking with his agent. None of these options seem to be an improvement over Sampdoria though.}

Thanks ED. Seems like he wants the premier league then? Or a higher up Serie A team. I assume we are actively looking for yet another CB?

In that case I wonder who else we are after.

{Ed007's Note - I think we found out early doors that our interest in Colley would be futile. What about someone like Lewis Gibson from Everton?}

Is he left footed ED? I don’t know much about him. I have heard the name! Is he well sought after? Mbe Soh looked like a no brainer for me from PSG and we have been linked but that seems to have went quiet. Might be worthwhile getting a “Project” in to sit alongside what we have and to eventually take over from Ajer.

{Ed007's Note - He is left-footed and can play both CB and LB. After a couple of minor injuries Gibson's game time has dried up and without some sort of road map for his future the player has to consider options away from Everton. This may be a loan or sale which include old club Newcastle, Southampton, Ipswich, Brighton and possibly Celtic. Feyenoord, Fortuna Dusseldorf, Hoffenheim and AZ Alkmaar all offer options a little further afield.

is that the boy that was on loan in germany ed?

{Ed007's Note - No mate. He left Newcastle at 17 in 2017 to join Everton and was loaned out to Fleetwood Town for the second half of the 2019/20 season.}

Thanks for the information ED! Seems like there is plenty interest then, it wouldn’t be odd to see him move to England and develop. Seems like Dortmund are utilising the English market to tempt players into set ups where they won’t stagnate.

{Ed007's Note - A lot of teams on the continent are monitoring the youngsters in the Pub League these days which could maybe cause us some problems in the future when it comes to our targets down there.}

i remember watching a game think it was stuttgart and a boy the had on loan from everton scored with a great strike. thought that's who it was. cheers ed.

{Ed007's Note - Jonjoe Kenny spent last season on loan to Schalke, it must be him, Liam.}

Maybe we have enquired about the bhoy from Sampdoria but I don't think that means we have put an offer in. I am probably wrong though lol.
