Celtic move would tempt McCormack

BBC SPORT | Football | My Club | C | Cardiff | Celtic move would tempt McCormack


Ross McCormack says he would be tempted by a move to Celtic but that a switch to the English Premier League would be more difficult to turn down.
The former Rangers and Motherwell player is attracting interest from a number of clubs after finishing the season as Cardiff's top scorer.
He said: "I've got a soft spot for Celtic. I supported them as a kid.
"Ever since I was a kid, I wanted to play in the Premiership. If I get the chance, it'll be hard to turn down."

The 22-year-old, who has three Scotland caps, scored his first international goal against Iceland in April and netted 23 times in his maiden season with Cardiff as they missed out on a play-off place on goal difference.

"I don't think I'm over the disappointment," he told BBC Scotland.
"It's hard being told that you missed out on the play-offs by one goal, especially for me personally - I missed two penalties in the last four games and if I had scored one of them, we would've been in the play-offs.
"Right now, I'm happy where I am at Cardiff and I'm enjoying my football."

 

no chance £6m

 

For 6million we could get someone twic as good.

 

True

 

We should have taken him last year when he was free.

 

Dosen't sound much of a Celtic fan if the premier league would be more tempting than playing for the team you grew up supporting.

 

I'd like to see him here, but 6 millions!? Give me a break, he's not THAT good.

 

if he is worth 6 millon.willo flood would be worth 4 millon.

 

I coud live with him as the 4th choise for the strikers ...

 

6 million? I think McCormack would be a great player for us but not 6 million quid's worth of great.

 

i think we could get him for less if the money was on the table, id love to see him here. throw in a player or two if cardiff are interested

 

your havin a laugh no way is he worth 4 million. 4 pence more like

 

nahh no chance , a would pay six million for him maybe 4 million at the most

 

to be fair hes now playing with better players and regularly so hes getting the chance to show what he can do and i think he would do well for us but we should have signed him last year on a free

 

i was highlighting how crazy the mc cormack price of 6millon was

i'd take kevin doyle and stephen hunt before mccormack.and they would be cheaper.

 

Cardiff Striker Ross Mccormack Is Up For Switch To Celtic (from Evening Times)

 

give cardiff sammy jvoh donnati and doumbe and see if cardiff will knock a mill off the asking price

 

Another skippy imo ,we need a couple of big strikers who can actually score goals and get rid of jvoh,samaras & killen we need height in attack not another small striker who's overpriced.

 

hes ok bt prefer janko for the price and honestly feel providing he can be fit maloneys better and we didnt move for him whn he was free
