There may nor be any incomings today but you can definitely expect a few outgoings.
With Celtic completing their strengthening early in this window, now is the time for the manger, Ange Postecoglou, to be thinking of shipping out those who will no longer play a part in Celtic’s future but also, and more importantly, get loan moves for those that will.
With Alban Ajeti, Boli Bolingoli and Vasilis Barkas all tipped to move on, the Hoops fans will be hoping that for the good of the team, those move happen today.
And quickly.
But looking to the future of the team, it seems that getting game time for those youngsters is also a priority for Ange.
Having already shipped two out so far this window in Liam Shaw and Brody Patterson, it seems that Osaze Urhoghide is next with a move to former Celt Jack Hendry’s ex club, KV Oostende on the cards.
Transfer specialist Ekrem Konur tweeted at 4:42am this morning that Urhoghide will be moving to Belgium on loan till the end of the season in a move that should see the 19 year old get some much needed game time.

From watching Urhoghide in his first senior debut against Real Betis, it is clear that the young Dutchman has a lot of potential and hopefully this move will unlock that as he gains more first team experience in the coming six months.

I think Ajeti is injured, so we’ll probably be lumped with him till the summer at least. Would be fantastic business if we managed to SELL Boli, Varkas & Ajeti, but time will tell🤞
There is still rumours floating that Ajeti could be off as well. Not wrote about it until something pretty solid comes through. Watch this space
Typo methinks… Was it not Betis if you are referring to his Celtic debut… Pretty positive that we haven’t played Madrid this season
Deary me! Haha, thanks. Amended now.
