There is a lot of news regarding Celtic departures right now. The biggest headline is the impending departure of Nicolas Kuhn. It is only a matter of time before he is announced as a new Como FC player, with pretty much everything already in place. But he is not the only one. Gustaf Lagerbielke's recent move to SC Braga has also been confirmed by the Hoops. And now, it looks like another departure is not far away.
Celtic will be looking to strengthen their midfield this summer. On the other hand, one of the club's best youth midfielders is headed for the exit door in search of playing time.
As reported by the Daily Record, Jude Bonner is set to sign for Ayr United on a season-long loan deal. The 19-year-old midfielder will be sent out to get game time under the management of Scott Brown.
Bonnar has been a standout performer for Celtic at the youth and developmental levels. He also made his senior debut for the club not too long ago. But unsurprisingly, chances have been hard to come by and as a result, he has not made another appearance so far.

One issue that Celtic have faced in recent times is their inability to bring through youngsters into the senior team. Talents like Bonnar have the potential but have to play at the right points in their careers.
As a result, often times, Celtic have not other option but to send some of their players out on loan. It remains to be seen how things go for Bonnar away at Ayr United.
He will get the chance to learn from one of the best in Celtic history in the form of Brown. Let's hope it is a positive experience for everyone.
