    We will test their resolve now that we have the £17M for Kuhn incoming.

    I'm confident this will be our next signing too.

    He was always a back up option once it was confirmed Nicky was away

    That's what you think. Have you ever seen Crow or Stacey in the same room?

    Is the * even good? Isnt his record pretty average or am i wrong here? Feels like we have been linked to him at least for 2 years and no one else have picked up on him. Could say the same on talent like Orjsaeter though which is obviously good players.

    He is decent enough, was easily Antwerps best player in the Play-offs. He hit good form before his last big injury as well. And there lays the issue! Whenever he hits form, he gets injured. His class wouldnt worry me, his goal scoring record for a far less dominant team is good. But he always gets injured. His injury record is abysmal.

    Cheers Belgian! That's quite worrying but it could be issue with their training/facilities etc. Who knows but it is kinda worrying.

    OK, so now we are down to the dregs and 3rd choices from the 'monitoring list' as our previous key targets disappear, so this guy gets bumped up the rumour mill.
    He is clearly not the right player for us, injury record shocking and the fact no one else wants him tells a load too.

    Let's hope new alternatives are already identified and we are whole load sharper closing out deals on them.
    It should take a week, from approach to haggling to agreeing a deal in principle, not feckin 2 windows.

    We have an extra £30M in the bank from Frimpong, Kyogo and Kuhn too.
    There really are no excuses.

    I’m not overly enthusiastic about this guy. His injury record and goal scoring are pretty poor. I hope we have someone else in mind as I don’t think he is worth what Antwerp are asking for.

    Absolute madness to be looking at injury prone players.

    Could be really bad with him and potentially KT constantly being switched in and out.

    No need to self sabotage.

    Fatboab cryptically saying we won't be signing Balikwisha or Orjasaeter.

    Prime example of this ITK nonsense. This is common knowledge being put in front of us as if it's some sort of behind the scenes scoop.

    Michel-Ange Balikwisha is still on Celtic’s radar, but the situation is increasingly complicated. Antwerp’s CEO and new manager Stef Wils have both expressed a desire to keep the winger, despite earlier suggestions the player could be allowed to leave for around £4.6 million. Celtic’s recruitment team will continue to monitor any developments
