The football world is a buzz with rumors of transfers and signing of fresh talent, Celtic is not without news of transfers.

Mohammad Elyounoussi returns to training

There’s still no word on where Mohammad Elyounoussi will end up at the end of the summer transfer window. An interesting video has emerged this week and in it the Norwegian loanee is training alongside his teammates at Lennoxtown. The fans exploded with excitement as it turns out he could be there to stay on a permanent basis.

Eloyounossi is on loan from Southampton, as is goalkeeper Fraser Forster. Neil Lennon recently gave an update on the pair of loanees and their futures with The Hoops.

Barkas to hop in if Forster negotiations fall through

We might not see Fraser Forster in goal this coming season, due to the unfortunate fact the Scottish Giants are going to have to plan ahead. It has been revealed that Greek goalkeeper Vasilios Barkas might be the man for the job. The keeper has worked his way to the top through the Greek leagues and we could see him in Scotland by next season. However, it appears that various other European clubs also have their eyes on him after a great campaign.

Hickey spotted showing his support

A lot of Celtic hopefuls want to get into the club out of sheer love for the world famous side. Young talent Aaron Hickey is no exception. He recently joined the senior rank but he was a fan first and foremost before joining on at the Celtic Academy before putting his senior time in with Hearts. A photo from 2017 has emerged showing the young man hold a Hoops scarf.

A favorite of Lennon’s might become available soon

Martin Boyle has been on Celtic’s radar since January 2020. Hibernian, Neil Lennon’s former club, might be selling the Scottish/Australian winger for a generous fee. Lennon has spent a lot of time with the talented player and is looking to work with him again.

Celtic players on tour

With all this talks of loans and securing new blood, we have not talked about who Celtic could loan out to generate some income. Our own Daniel Martinez has put together a list of great options that The Hoops could loan out to up their credit score.

Morelos on his way out?

Rangers might be parting ways with Morelos, who played an absolute scorcher back in 2019 but has declined a little following his insane run. Now it seems like Scotland’s second most recognizable club could be selling him on while his name is still a hot property. It remains to be seen whether or not we see the player move to a new club.

What do you think? How is the transfer window looking and how what shape will first-team be in come the start of next season?
