You expect him to move himself abroad just so the club can get money? 🤣 Hickey can do what he wants but it’s delusional to expect people to be ‘happy’ and wish him well if he shafts the club over and joins a rival for a pittance.

Hickey wouldn't be in that Bayern squad ffs... He'd be in the development squad and looking at the differences between him and Davies for example - the current Bayern RB: there is over a year difference in age but one of them is amazing at the highest level and let's be honest, the other is not. This will hardly change in the next year or two, will it? They'll end up with a better left back and Hickey will need to weigh up his options again. It's up to him where he wants to go. He owes nobody anything. He's played with Celtic before as well and is also a Celtic fan, remember! People wishing him, an 18 year old boy ill, is shocking tbh. Bayern are strrets ahead of celtic in everyway,as a young progressing footballer,why would you not want not go there? Would show me a lack of ambition.

OTT Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 If he was considering Celtic, this media frenzy will hopefully force him to see the light. Get out of the goldfish bowl while you can and go experience another culture. Be that Bologna or Munich. People are pointing at Ryan Gauld as some beacon of failure yet he's still playing over there. Do you know how many youngsters big clubs chew through and spit out? Thousands. But, Gauld can now speak Portuguese and the life experience which comes with the challenge of living abroad at such a young age. He's also still a professional footballer playing top flight football. If Hickey doesn't make it at Bayern, he could still end up playing in the Bundesliga or Serie A. Not only that he'd be escaping the cultural unprofessionalism in Scotland. Its such a massive opportunity for the laddie, he needs to take it. Anything less and he'll be asking himself 'what if' forever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Italian Lambretta Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 Looks like the guarantee of first team footbal in his first season may have swung it in favour of Bologne.

Shame about Peter Oliver - a great player who struggled to come back fully from injury, asked for a transfer and was eventually freed. A bit off topic but it goes to show how quickly a really promising career can disintegrate because of injury. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HMFC01 Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 Quote Neil Lennon refused to comment on Celtic's reported offer for Aaron Hickey. It's claimed the Hoops had tabled a bid for the Hearts rising star, who has been widely linked with a move to Bayern Munich or Bologna. But Hearts insist they have not been approached by Celtic regarding their prized asset. Lennon was asked if the Parkhead club were in for Hickey, but he was visibly frustrated at being continually quizzed about transfers rumours at his press conference. He said: "Stop throwing names at me, I'm just going to keep batting off the questions really, it's not really our policy to be talking about speculation." https://www.edinburghlive.co.uk/sport/football/celtic-news-transfers-hickey-lennon-18828677 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The workings of the transfer system and player registration: current set up in Scotland 63. A club in Scotland must register its players with its League (the Scottish Premier League or the Scottish Football League as appropriate) and with the national association - The Scottish Football Association. Player contracts are for a fixed term, providing protection to both the club and the player. 64. A player must be 16 years of age before he can sign a professional Player Contract. A club is prohibited from signing a player who is under 18 years of age on a contract of more than 3 years duration. In Scotland, options cannot be included in a Player Contract.

graygo Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 From the SFA rules - 4.3 A Player, who is under 18 years of age at the date of signing as a Professional Player upon the Registration Form may only be registered for a period not exceeding 3 years. Any clause referring to a longer duration within the relative agreement between the Player and the Club shall not be recognised and in such circumstances, the Player’s registration shall cease after 3 years, from the date of the signing as a Professional Player upon the Registration Form. 4.4 The registration of a Player who is 18 years of age and over at the date of signing the Registration Form may be registered for a period up to but not exceeding 5 years from the date of the signing of the Registration Form. Agreements of any other length shall only be permitted if consistent with national laws. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the clubs point of view, I think Bologna would be the better move. If he does well at a smaller club in Serie A, who knows what sort of money he could move on for? Not much scope for a big money move from Bayern. I'm obviously hoping we'd get a sell on fee wedged into the deal.
