Strachan said no signings were imminent after last nights game when he was asked. He also said he has a team in mind for Sunday so it wouldn't make the slightest bit of difference if players were to arrive before then. He also said got a few weeks of the transfer window left.

I reckon we won't see anyone new signed until next week or the week after

It says on wikipedia(not best source) that he is a celtic player already albeit a co-operation with barca. Does this mean that Celtic and Barca will share ownership like Eto'o was shared between Real Madrid and Majorca and how Italian clubs share ownership of players etc?

Mcgrory67 - I believe the SFA does not allow co-ownership of its registered players. I think wikipedia might be talking shite :P

If those Strachan quotes are true that doesn't sound good for the Crosas signing. And I'd still love to see a beast of a defender come in as well....

Yep co ownership is not allowed in the UK nor in most leagues. Italy is the only place I know of where its allowed.

Wikipedia isnt a reliable source as anyone can edit the information

I can't really see it being tied up in the next few days. I think it will take a while. The good news is that the agreement is there and he really wants to come but you have to remember we haven't given him a medical or discussed personal terms.

Hopefully i'm worng but this one will take a while like the Naka transfer did 3 seasons back!

I think Spain allows co-ownership. Remember the period where Eto'o was owned by Mallorca, Real AND Barca?

But he's not said anything different here? This is exactly what he said when it was announced and his quotes were added to this thread.

There's still a long way to go on this one!

In my drink addled mind I thought Eto'o left Madrid at a young age, went back to France or something.. Ended up at Mallorca where Barca bought half of him..........Or something. Dont think all 3 clubs owned him..

P.s. Crossas please sign

I didn't think Spanish teams were allowed this co-ownership pish either, to be honest.

Portugal i think might allow it though...

* It have nothing to do with Marc Crosas
* Samuel Eto'o will stay in Barca.
* Even if would switch club, Celtic have no chance to efford his wage.

i don't think they mean a true co ownership agreement, more that barca are still involved in that they can buy him back next season for a very low fee if he plays well. I'm a bit worried about it to be honest. In effect does it not mean if he's as good as we hope it's a loan, if he bombs we're stuck with him. Really pleased with the news on the other thread about bassa, think he could be amazing.

Not really. Because its up to the player if he wants to go back to Barca or not. Also, he might do really well for us but Barca still might not want him back.
