    aba on his way to Celtic
    EXCLUSIVE PAUL HUGHES and GARETH LAW
    Published: Today

    BABA DIAWARA is set to seal a move to Celtic along with Mohamed Bangura.
    Georgios Samaras and Shaun Maloney will fund the double swoop by heading to England.

    Maritimo striker Diawara is on the brink of sealing a £2million move ahead of tomorrow's transfer deadline. And he will be joined by £2.2m AIK Stockholm hitman Bangura.

    Celtic boss Neil Lennon will finance the deals by selling Samaras — a £3m target for Sunderland — and Maloney, who is expected to agree a deal with Wigan this morning.

    Samaras signed a new three-year deal last season but the Hoops will now off-load the Greek misfit.

    Scotland star Maloney will also be allowed to go after Wigan boss Roberto Martinez matched Hoops' £2m valuation.

    That will pave the way for the arrivals of Diawara and Bangura who will have medicals today.

    Last night Diawara was with Maritimo president Carlos Pereira in Lisbon as Celtic thrashed out a fee with the Portuguese outfit before he flies to Glasgow.

    A source close to the player said: "Just about everything is in place now.

    "Both clubs have agreed in principle to proceed with the deal, all they have to do now is firm up a price.

    "Baba is really excited by the move. He knows Celtic are a big club and can't wait to arrive in Scotland."

    The arrival of Diawara has not ended Celtic's interest in Bangura. The Sierra Leone striker is still wanted by Lennon.

    One player Celtic insist they WON'T be selling, though, is South Korean midfielder Ki Sung-Yueng.

    SunSport understands the Hoops — who had already rejected a £4m bid from Blackburn — have thrown out a staggering £8m bid from super-rich Russian outfit Rubin Kazan.

    Hoops chief executive Peter Lawwell could have been tempted to cash in on the powerful midfielder, but has decided he doesn't need to flog one of the club's top prospects.

    And Ki — back in his homeland for World Cup qualifiers against Kuwait and Lebanon — refused to contemplate a move away from Parkhead.

    He said: "I know about the various offers but there is no point me thinking about a transfer now.

    "And there has been nothing formal, as far as I know.

    "What's important is that our World Cup campaign begins this week and I don't want to lose focus on that."

    I like Maloney and felt he has had a hard time of it lately, but this is good business. Sammy has done little in his time here other than a one off fluke against the Orcs.

    They go with my hope that they do well at their prospective new clubs.

    Seems like pretty good business.
    2 in 2 out. WOuld like to see more but having 2 strikers coming in is * good business. One target man and one who appears to be pretty versatile.

    Could this see McCourt getting more game/bench time? now that Maloney is going.

    Happy days.

    Since returning from England, Maloney, has been by and large a wage thief. Good riddance.

    More the fool Wigan btw, the Winter months are approaching and he'll be out with his usual long term injury.

    If we can get Bangura and Diawara for £5M while punting Samaras and maloney for the same, I'll be over the moon. Seems too good to be true though.

    If Celtic manage to somehow dupe a club into paying £2 million for a footballer that is fit for the knackers yard we have completed the best bit of business of the transfer window.

    Would be delighted if we got £2 million for Maloney, that seems too good to be true.

    Really surprised that a team would be willing to take a punt on Maloney considering his injury record, let alone be willing to spend £2 million on him although that's pennies for most EPL teams.

    3m for Samaras? Yesh pleash!

    2m Maloney? I think the wee man's a player, but opportunities will be limited.

    5m for the two, funding Banger & Baba sounds like good business!
