It’s the news we have all been waiting for and feel as if it was never going to happen. The talk has been rampant from the press, media and bloggers but nothing official has ever been said by Celtic or the Howe camp.
Today on Talksport, reporter Alex Crooke, revealed that his ‘reliable sources’ have told him that Eddie Howe is on his way to Celtic Park for the start of the new season, “I’ve been told from very reliable sources that Eddie Howe is now heading to Celtic for the start of next season. He’s even starting to assemble a backroom team, some of that backroom team will come from his old club Bournemouth.

“And actually one of the reasons for the delay is of course Bournemouth apart the Championship playoffs looking to get back in the Premier League, and that could hamper Eddie house chance of taking one or two of his former coaches with him to Glasgow but anyhow, as far as I’m being told will be the new Celtic manager in time for the start of next season.”
Crooke was confident and assured and this will no doubt be another breakthrough the Celtic fans will have been looking for as they have been in a state of suspended animation since Neil Lennon left the club almost eleven weeks ago.
The challenge for the new manager is massive and hopefully with Howe now seemingly done and dusted, the club can start to attract quality players in time for not only the new season, but for the Champions League play offs starting in around six weeks time.
