    Even if we buy both, Ajer fee alone pays that and they can keep the other £3m to put in the bank. £9m for an upcoming, talented, young centre back and a 26 year old international, it’s not bad at all. We must be saving nearly £100k a week on wages on the loan players alone.

    If we got the Croat as well, offt, yes please.

    Two players kn paper that are maybe worthy of first 11 assuming Ajer goes immediately and a prospect who started getting game time at Sheff Wednesday.

    Would be unusual for Celtic to think of adding such depth, sp probably won't happen

    We need about 3 CBs though.

    The one thing that doesn't excite me about this is that it's an Ajer replacement...meaning that he comes in and the former leaves and we are back at square 1 still needing reinforcements. It's not really adding or strengthening us.

    Need at least him and Vuskovic.

    Should we be looking much into the fact he couldn’t get into the Sweden squad instead of Helander/a 33 year old from China/ a 36 year old granqvist

    I agree. The attitude of the Scandinavians that we have had in the past has been excellent (there are probably some exceptions). Even Ajer himself who clearly wants to leave has put in a shift for us in a very disappointing season. If only players like Edouard and Ntcham had the attitude of Scandinavians.

    The only one who I would say had a bad attitude was Stefan Johansen. Spat the dummy when he didn't get his move in 2015. Would absolutely love another big Swede in defence like Mjallby

    Still a bit concerning though that he has 3 caps at 26.

    As someone posted above I'd just hope it's a late bloomer. 180 1st team games by his age.

    I hope that's the case. Especially with Jullien out still..

    I'd be pleasantly surprised if we spent 9 mill on 2 centre halves. Experienced late bloomer who by all account's was a regular for his side finishing 4th in Russia. A youngster who's a regular at his club and with massive potential off the Croatian conveyor belt..

    Would be great..

    Only got his 3 caps from last year which would point to a late bloomer and why he's been overlooked..

    I dunno enough about Sweden to judge there manager’s judgement on players and I’m sure he’s been there a while (might be wrong on that one)

    Russian league is decent, as are Rubin Kazan. I know nothing about this guy.

    Even more reason why we need Vuskovic in as well then as we need a centre half to be able to come out with the ball..

    100%. If we got the Starfelt and Vuskovic, I’d be quite happy to see another CB come in on loan. That would be that position sorted. We still need 1 left back and a right back. If Urgohide is a right back/centre back, it probably stops us going for 2 right backs

    Vuskovic isn't strong in that area either. He appears to be a more progressive passer than Starfelt though.
