Giorgos Giakoumakis

‘Erik Sviatchenko’s side’ - I’d to check he wasn’t the manager! For a second there I was feeling ancient.

 

That would be a backwards step and they wouldn't pay him higher wages than us would they?

 

* knows. Unless there isn't the sort of interest in him he was expecting

 

Sounds like * that..

Mid table Danish side for his last deal. Hmmm..

 

Does anyone know how far we are on the wages?

I like him as a back up and different option but we probably can do better

I could maybe understand going to Denmark it if he's going on loan to get games

 

As long as his fee covers his replacement, I'm not fussed. If he's not happy here that is.

 

Sorry I meant how far us and him are apart on an agreement on new wages..

 

No worries mate.


Probably a couple figures out from his end anyway

 

Agree. If he did go I think we need a striker with a similar physical presence. Our squad lacks muscle.

 

Danish side FC Midtjylland are reportedly set to launch a bid to land Celtic striker Giorgos Giakoumakis this month.

Record Sport exclusively revealed back in November that the 28-year-old Greece international was set for a shock Parkhead exit after talks over a new contract stalled. Japanese outfit Urawa Reds were linked with the frontman earlier this week and now Danish Superliga side Midtjylland are said to be interested.


The Danes - who eliminated Celtic in theChampions League qualifiers last season - are looking for a replacement for star man Evander after the Brazilian joined Portland Timbers last month and, according to Danish outlet BT, have targeted Giakoumakis as the ideal man to fill the void. The report also claims it would be an "expensive" move for the Danes whose previous transfer record stands at £4.5million. Giakoumakis netted 18 times last season and has already found the net eight times this season but hasn’t started a game since the winter break as he plays second fiddle to Kyogo. We also told how he was unhappy that a new deal couldn’t agreed



The frontman dropped his wage demands significantly to make the move from VVV-Venlo last year but it was on the understanding his terms would be improved if he had a successful first season in Scottish football. Celtic have offered a pay rise but it is still significantly short of where he feels his salary should be

 

They want a physical penalty box number 9 to replace a technical number 10..

No bother..

 

Mooy is on 23k * me that’s mental.

 

Wages in football are crazy now. Some absolute dross getting a fortune (don’t mean Mooy)

 

Very true.

 

Don't care where he goes as long as we make a healthy profit.

 

Are we signing this south Korean fella then?

We need to have a replacement lined up if GG goes.

I think somebody that contrasts Kyogo would be a good idea, big strong, good in the air.

I'd have Giakoumakis starting before Kyogo most games if if was up to me, but obviously something isn't right.

Hopefully we don't * about, get GG out and get somebody in.

Maybe even sign two strikers.

 

Fat Boy is on 33k and Matondo on 28k, so in comparison isn't that high
