    Fortune in Glasgow for Celtic talks, Nancy director confirms

    Marc-Antoine Fortune looks set to be Celtic boss Tony Mowbray's first signing after the player's club confirmed he is in Glasgow for talks.

    06 July 2009 17:51 PM


    107220 [​IMG] Celtic appear to be close to securing the signature of Marc-Antoine Fortune after a director at the player’s club AS Nancy confirmed he is in Glasgow for signing talks.
    Although no deal has been finalised, the Parkhead club are believed to have settled a £3.8million fee with the French club, with the player looking increasingly likely to be new boss Tony Mowbray’s first signing.
    A statement on the Nancy's website reads: "In contact with several British clubs, Marc-Antoine Fortune is currently in Glasgow to visit Celtic."
    However the club's Director General, Nicolas Holveck, added: “No decision has yet been taken."
    Fortune played for Mowbray during a loan-spell for West Brom last season, scoring five goals in 17 league appearances.
    Despite reported interest from English Premiership clubs including Hull and Portsmouth, Celtic appear to be in pole position to get their man.
    According to his agent Michael Maneullo, the French striker should make an announcement on his decision by tomorrow.
    Meanwhile Holveck also said that Mowbray is interested in signing Landry N'Guemo.

    MARC-ANTOINE FORTUNE flew into Glasgow late Monday night and will clinch a move to Celtic in the next 24 hours.

    The Nancy striker looks certain to complete his £3.8million switch in time to jet out with Celts to Australia on Thursday.
    Fortune has snubbed bigger offers from Premier League clubs to be reunited with his old West Brom boss Tony Mowbray.
    Fortune's agent, Michael Manuello, will join him in Glasgow to put the finishing touches to a deal that will see the hitman become Mogga's first Hoops signing.
    Manuello said: "Marc has made his decision and he will be in Glasgow on Tuesday.
    "He will look around the club and do some things which I do not need to be at.
    "We still have some details to discuss with Celtic. It is nothing major but with every transfer you have to take care.
    "There are some discussions to be finished but if things are normal he will sign for Celtic.
    ''I'll arrive on Tuesday night and I expect that by Wednesday night everything will be okay for him to sign. We are aware that the squad is going to their training camp in Australia on Thursday."
    West Ham, Hull, Fulham and Portsmouth were all desperate to land the 28-year-old but Fortune has decided his future lies with Mowbray at Parkhead.
    He was on loan with Mogga's Baggies last season and was identified as his No1 target after he took over from Gordon Strachan.
    Mowbray feared Fortune would turn his nose up at the SPL in favour of a bigger pay packet in England.
    But those fears have now eased and Fortune looks set to make his Celts debut against Brisbane Roar on Sunday.
    Meanwhile, Fortune could be joined at Celtic by Nancy team-mate Landry N'Guemo with the Parkhead side formally opening talks on a loan deal with the Ligue 1 side.
    N'Guemo, 23, has been capped three times by Cameroon and is a defensive midfielder who will prove an able replacement for the departing Paul Hartley.

    Digg!

    After what appears like an eternity Marc Antoine Fortune (pity his middlename isn’t Ulysses – Ed!) arrived in Glasgow today and appears destined to be new gaffer Tony ‘Mogga’ Mowbray’s first signing.



    We hear MAF’s agent has agreed a better cut of the transfer fee with Nancy (there’s something quite surreal about this post – Ed!) thus making up some of the major financial difference between what Fortune was offered from a handful of EPL clubs compared to Celtic and therein lies the reason behind the longer than expected delay in his arrival in Glasgow.



    We hear the amount offered up front is in the region of £2m with the remainder payable over the following two years and based on games played in the hoops.



    All going to plan Marc should be confirmed as a new Celtic player tomorrow.



    In other news we hear that deals are very close to be being struck for both Landry N’Guemo and Xabier Castillo with a reasonable chance one of them will join Fortune in Celtic’s flight this week to Brisbane.



    We also know of two additional players leaving Celtic with four more coming in. News on this and many more bits of nonsense due in the next week or so from the Wee Man’s sponsored ETims Rumour Mill.
