There has been a lot said about Celtic’s potential incomings this summer.

There has been more links to to the club than in a butchers shop (sorry!).

But as the fans dream of big money signings to strengthen the team, it’s a big money signing of two seasons ago that Chris Sutton reckons is on the way out at Parkhead.

Christopher Jullien has fell so far out the picture under Ange Postecoglou it’s hard to believe that, at one time, he was a key player for the Hoops.

But injury set his career back and as Postecoglou had to rebuild the squad without him, it looks like that the Frenchman is not needed at all by the gaffer.

Speaking in his column in the Daily Record, Sutton thinks that it’s time up for Jullien and a parting of the ways might be best for all concerned, “There’s still some positions to fill, including centre back – even if Carter-Vickers gets done as it looks like Christopher Jullien will be going.

“The Frenchman clearly isn’t Postecoglou’s cup of tea given the fact he’s been nowhere near the side despite being fit from the turn of the year.

“Jullien has been a decent player for Celtic but the manger sees him in training and has made up his mind.

“It might be he doesn’t think he is cut out for the kind of centre half role he likes, where they can be a bit exposed man for man at times, and if that’s the case then it might be best for all involved for a parting of the ways.”

Jullien has been a good servant for the club. We will all remember his goal that won us the League Cup against Rangers but it does look like his career at Celtic is over.
