    I would prefer he stayed in Scotland but won't begrudge him a move to Portugal. He needs to play games and develop.

    Mikey Johnston is on the verge of a loan move to Vitoria Guimaraes before the end of the transfer window tonight.

    Football Scotland understands the Celticwinger is currently en route to Portugal as he gets set to finalise his switch to the Primeira Liga. Hearts had been credited with late interest in the attacking player as they seek reinforcements but Johnston will sign with Guimaraes for the remainder of the season. The 23-year-old has struggled for game time at Parkhead and Ange Postecoglou has been desperate to get him minutes elsewhere to allow his continued development.


    With the likes of Jota, Daizen Maeda and now Sead Haksabanovic ahead of him in the pecking order it was imperative for the player that he manage to move
    elsewhere before midnight tonight.




    We told how Standard Liege also hoped to bring Johnston in the door under Ronny Deila but it's Portugal's top flight where he'll play his football against the likes of Porto and Benfica.

    Injuries have blighted Johnston's Hoops career thus far with just 20 appearances last season with the majority coming off the bench.

    He is yet to feature this term

    would be a brilliant move for him, Portuguese football is very technical, not many teams have hammer throwers like in Scotland and he will have time to play football there.


    Guimaraes Will be a good fit for him as well.

    I think this is his last chance now.

    He needs confidence theirs too much pressure at Celtic just now he can’t cope with it it’s affecting his development which had been curtailed by injuries and Lennon

    Good luck to the young lad. There's a player in there, wrapped under layers of plaster and bandages... Hopefully he'll find his way to his best!

    It's unfortunate but he's not Celtic quality, better suited to a club like Cetlic.
