Major update on Celtic’s Josip Juranovic transfer chase

Josip Juranovic has recently emerged as one of the right-backs that Celtic are believed to be interested in signing this summer. And it is not hard to see why.

Juranovic has some solid experience at both club and international level. According to stats from Transfermarkt, he has made 40 appearances for Legia Warsaw till now, scoring once and providing 10 assists in the process of doing so. He has also made 10 appearances for the Croatian national team.

Thus, it is safe to say that he could be a solid signing for the Hoops and a great fit in Ange Postecoglou’s style of football. Now, it remains to be seen if the club can bring him to Parkhead.

A while back, it was looking like a move might not be far away for Juranovic but recent rumours had suggested that it was off the table now. But as reported by the Daily Record, Celtic are not dropping out of the race for Juranovic and are still keen on signing the full-back.

Juranovic can be a brilliant signing for Celtic

Juranovic is a very good player. While he is solid defensively, it is on the other end of the pitch that he truly shines. That is why he can be a good fit in Postecoglou’s system.

While the Hoops still need to sign another right-back this summer, one of the things that Anthony Ralston’s good form has done is give the club time to make their decision regarding any signing and not rush into any move.

While they have been linked with several right-backs in recent weeks, Juranovic appears to have the most experience out of them and could very well be the most first-team ready if the Hoops were able to bring him to Parkhead.

Now, it remains to be seen what the future holds. Yan Couto is another right-back who has been heavily linked with a move to the Glasgow giants in recent times.
