droid Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 15 minutes ago, RustyRightPeg said: Celtic have just announced a signing as well 3 minutes ago, wavydavy said: Celtic have signed Croatian international full-back Josip Juranovic from Polish side Legia Warsaw for an undisclosed fee. The 26-year-old will sign a five-year deal once the transfer has received international clearance. Juranovic becomes manager Ange Postecoglou's eighth signing of the summer transfer window. "We have so many challenges ahead of us and Josip will add important quality and depth," the Celtic boss said. So 🤷♂️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nookie Bear Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 1 hour ago, Leisham38 said: Out of intrigue thought I’d check the Airdrie winger Thomas Robert, was linked with us, apparantly had trials with Premiership teams and Celtic. Must have one hell of a publicist, because no matter how many headlines and stories were written last season and pre season he is currently without a club! Weird one. If his name was Tam Roberts and he didn’t have a famous father then nobody would ever mention him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supposed to be a really good player - I watched him once for Airdrie and he was excellent there, but aye there's obviously a reason none of the top clubs have signed him if he's had trials and is still sitting as a free agent. Maybe he has offers and is just taking his time to make a decision. Someone I wouldn't mind us picking up if the wages were low enough as he does look good.

_HeartsReport Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 7 hours ago, merseyjambo said: Spoke to Brother in Law last night about Woodburn, as he’s a massive Kopsh1te and has a few connections to some of the older ex-players at club. Spoke very highly of Woodburn, when he broke into first team, he was expected to go all the way. A few bad loans and injury has stalled career but apparently was back to his best in games against Bilbao and Osasuna. Believes this move is to put him in shop window at end of contract next year. Also said if played in right way, he’s head and shoulders above anything in the SPL. Been Woodburn Analysis if interested 👇 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jambo-Fox Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 1 hour ago, Ford Prentice said: Having read up on this the quota system is more complicated than my post implied - but probably still the main reason Liverpool are/were dragging their heels. You are allowed a maximum of 17 non home grown / association developed players, then also allowed up to 8 home grown / association developed to give a senior squad maximum of 25 players. Any under 21s do not need to be named in the squad and can be played! European squads are more complicated where 4 (or more of the 8 must be club trained / developed. Additionally U21s must be registered for a period of time with an association club to enable them to play without being named in the squad!
