Confirmed Signing Lucas Digne

[davids]

Usually from the club itself

Surely the club would want to keep that confidential rather than make other clubs aware of their interest.

The club give information to certain journalists every so often. Three of them ran the story re Tierney at the embargo time of 10.30 on the same night. That was not a Co incidence

Celtic or the players agent yes.But there isn't a financial upside to the club leaking it.

@Connor will explain this better.
But it happens

That journalist mccarry? Who I think was one of the 1st to report this, has said we are back in fir Tierney. And he thinks it’s 50/50 he will leave. Also a Spanish journalist, who is apparently very close to Barca, has said that the Digne deal is not as close as being reported.

I wonder if we had been after Richarlison fir a few weeks. And the links to Zaha & Malcolm was to put pressure on Watford. Maybe the same is happening with Tierney, with the rumours we are close to to signing another Left Back.

Is Connor an agent? Now leaking interest in Digne to force Celtic to play ball over Tierney makes sense.

Ian McGarry is knowledgable. I do hope you’re right, Tierney is the type of player we should be after. Celtic need to sell so brands could be forcing their hand.

Even though I have never seen Digne (that I recall), the thought of Tierney and Richarlison excites me more than Digne and Rich.

If he’s good enough for PSG and Barcelona he’s more than good enough for us. Just saying.

If he’s been moved on by both clubs then he isn’t good enough for them though.

Richy turned 21 in May, Tierney 21 Turned 21 in June.
Mina 23.

It would be very exciting if we was signing players of this age and potential. That’s the only way the club can compete long term, I feel

He was signed by both so...

Absolutely. Alex ferguson team model youth and experience.

Does that make Sandro, Geri and Ben Arfa good enough for PSG and Barcelona? Or make them good enough for us.?

Big clubs sign players that aren’t good enough for them all of the time.
