Back on topic, one thing I didn't realise about Oshaniwa was that Celtic interest him first came from January 2013 and then was repeated in January this year. I thought it was only this January.but it shows they have had an eye on him for a while.

Then again, there is the slight concern that in both cases it him who is claiming this.

But it was Lennon who was interested last time, maybe his agent was just shaking the tree again this year.

any updates on this today in the world of Twitter/news sites?

I think sorting out his visa is the only thing holding up his arrival.

Klaxon.

The longer it goes the more it seems likely that the news of signing witbus was leaked to alert other teams

i hope you are wrong but fear you may be right ... integrity in the world of footballers and their agents is in scarce supply and this scenario would not surprise me one little bit.

I really do not think that is the case in this instance

I understood that he was getting his visa sorted last week and he would be over this week.

Agreed. I posted an article where he said as much in an interview. Basically it was all done, work permit agreed and he just needed a visa to travel over. I know from people I work with this isn't something that is solved in a few hours. I don't think we need to panic yet.

 

Also given the style of our management team, they wouldn't have acknowledged interest unless they thought it was done or there was any risk of us losing him.

I can imagine Robbie wooing him with "You're Juwon that I want", seeing that he knows Greece so well.

Wish I was still there - had loads of mates in the visa section, could have had it pushed maybe!!!!!!  He could have been joining in our Tuesday fives at the High Commission to keep in tune!

Have we done a medical ?

Everything is done, just a hold up with his visa. Once he arrives in the UK he will sign a three year deal :thumbsup:

The article noted that he had been over and went back to Nigeria leaving the details with his agent so I would assume it was done then ?

 

By all accounts tomorrow/Wed it was being announced with no panic or hidden agenda behind it just timing.

Head of the visa section in Abuja was a Celtic fan when I was there!  Think he's gone now though....

I'm starting to get the fear about this deal.

 

I wouldn't be surprised if Celtic jumped in at the last moment. Which would ramp up the happy atmosphere at games between us and them.

I'm not sure on how these things are done but if this boy does well for us this thread should be in the classics just for the song tributes!!

Said the same last week. I agree with a previous poster who said it feels like the details were released by the agent to try and get Celtic to come back in for him.

Be patient everyone and I'm sure the klaxon will sound soon.

 

Remember you can't always get quick Juwon but if you try sometimes, you might find, you get what you need.

I've been figuring on Tuesday since last week.  If we still have nothing by this time tomorrow, I'll start worrying.

Not sure what you mean, dude. I am not claiming ITK or privy to facts, just that in my own (likely panicky head) I worry that this is dragging on a little without an air-tight favourable resolution, while word of our interest and attempts to get the deal done have been in the public arena for longer than I'd be comfortable with without conclusion. The fact Celtic have shown interest in him doesn't help my nerves either.

Did someone not point out the other week that the team which applies for the permit haa to be the one he signs for? They could still hijack the deal, but they'd have to go back to scratch with the application. That he's applied with us suggests he intends to go through with the deal.

 

Brutal truth time. I'd say 9 times out of 10 if Celtic wanted to gazump us to a player we were in for with bigger wages, bigger crowds, European football and a genuine chance of medals, they could do it.

Closer to 10/10 Times ToM. I doubt going back to the start of a work permit application would bother Celtic, either. Not saying it will happen, just that it FEELS (and based on nothing other than my own feelings) like his agent is dragging his heels in the hope of Celtic swooping at the last second. As I said though, probably just my own suspicious mind.

Sadly the immigration system, particularly in this age of cuts and outsourcing, isn't geared up to the needs of business, including businesses like Hearts, no matter how quickly they want to process a visa application.

His agent IIRC is Ladi Salami, who is gomis and buaben's agent. Decent relationship with levein, I can't see him stirring this one up.
