    Just heard from a mate(so probs not true lol), that Celtic are interested in Leroy Lita. Apparently Reading have not renewed his contract and therefore is s free agent.

    If this is true, would you sign him. Personally I would

    on a free definately. he struggled this year as far as i'm aware but looked a player when they were in the premiership. from what i remember he's strong and fast which we could really do with up front.

    I thought he was superb in his day but by the time Reading are letting him go he must be * pish.

    If there was any chance of seeing a return to the form he showed in 2007 at the Under 21 Euro's then yes I'd take him in a heartbeat.

    i'd take him in a fight but wouldn't want him at celtic park. had a few good seasons but i think he'll end up like carl cort and jason euell. loads of talent but obviously not a great attitude or work ethic

    Yes I would definitely be looking at him. No fee involved and I believe he has a bit of pace about him. Something we badly need up front! He also has a fair scoring record in his career so yes I would go after him.

    I think he's a really poor player, so not for me.

    I'll say yes :icon_mrgreen: got to be better that what we have got and if he can develop into the form he had years ago he'll be a great signing :celt_2:

    No thanks. Surely we can buy a better striker than this wether we win the league or not.

    What would be the point.

    Talented? Yes.

    But he has been released by a Championship side, thats all about his attitude.
