Cillian Sheridan will go in CSKA Sofia

Thanks for the informations lads.

He's isn't near the first team in Celtic so he isn't really in focus in the media.

 

Howcome theres been no media coverage of this from our side of things ?

I am doubtful that he would wana move to and play in Bulgaria but you never know

 

it was in a paper this morning, daily record i think

 

oh was it, i don't get it very often but the only place i have heard of this through the duration of the story was on here tbh

 

Still think eventually if developed right he could be a very good target man type player. He does have some raw talent. What he needs is to play at a decent level for one club every week for 2 or 3 seasons and learns his trade. I personally would let him go fairly cheap but ask for a decent percentage of any future transfer. I just have a feeling that he could be a really good player in 3 or 4 years if he plays every week.

Sheridan lined up for move to Bulgaria - Scotsman.com


CELTIC striker Cillian Sheridan is in line for a surprise £350,000 move to CSKA Sofia, with the Irish striker in the Bulgarian capital this weekend for talks about a possible transfer.
The 21-year-old has spent most of the past two seasons on loan but was part of the Celtic squad for the recent tour of America. But with Gary Hooper's arrival knocking Sheridan down to fifth in Neil Lennon's striker pecking order behind Georgios Samaras, Marc Antoine Fortune and Morten Rasmussen, Celtic are open to cashing in on the player as he enters the final year of his contract.

Sheridan enjoyed a sucessful stint with St Johnstone in the second half of last season, his form earning him a full international debut in May. His likely departure comes on the back of the sales of Stephen McManus, Artur Boruc, Zheng Zhi, Simon Ferry and Paul Caddis that have raised in the region of £4 million, the sum Lennon has so far spent extensively reshaping his squad.

Any move by Aiden McGeady would greatly strengthen the Celtic manager's hand in the transfer market but according to quotes attributed to the Celtic winger in a daily Russian sports newspaper, McGeady says it is "unlikely" he would move to Spartak Moscow, so far the only serious bidders for him with a £9m offer. McGeady is reported to have said he did not believe the move to Russia would improve him as a player.

The 24-year-old made his first appearance of the season in yesterday's 2-2 draw against Lyon but was overshadowed by 19-year-old James Forrest on the opposite wing. Lennon admitted McGeady had been "a bit flat" after his injury lay-off but said he would feature today against Arsenal providing the back injury said to have kept him out of the 3-0 Champions League defeat in Braga did not play-up overnight. And if he came through this afternoon, Lennon would consider him for the return leg in Glasgow on Wednesday. "It will be a football decision," he said, a reference to the suggestions he was not played in Portugal so he would not be ineligible to apear for Spartak in the Champions League.

 

hope this gets done been dragging on like a typical celtic transfer

 

any word on this

 

If he's gonna sign for us (although some site's are saying that we have already agreed on a deal) its today/Monday to be understand...

 

He's leaving. Good luck to him.

 

"I came over to see what the club was like and whether I liked it," explained Sheridan. "I am looking forward to being here.
"I know next to nothing about CSKA although I watched them play Fulham and Roma in Europe last year and they looked good."

 

Celtic striker Cillian Sheridan will give Bulgarian side CSKA Sofia an answer this week on a possible transfer, having visited the club at the weekend.

He don't seem fully convinced by a switch to Bulgaria. It's a big step to a unknown club, so I fully understand him.

Sounds like from those quotes that he is going to make the move. Good luck to him. That is a real leap into the unknown. Different language and culture never mind the football. Hope it works out well for him if the transfer does end up going through.

 

So today finally sport director of CSKA confirmed that transfer was done!!! Cillian Sheridan and Celtic accept the offer and Sheridan next Thursday will arrive in Sofia and officially will sign 3 year contract.

Good Luck to Sheridan in his new club!!!

 

Good luck to Cillian, pity he never got a proper chance but who knows he might be back with us one day as a more polished player.

 

Good news.

All the best to the irish lad. Not very often a irish national player leaving to Bulgaria.

 

According to some reports the personal deal have been agreed but the transfee isn't - yet.

 

The personal contact was already done today. The transfer between two clubs will be finish on Friday when the contract will be sign from both sides by fax. These words today said our sports director. The amount of this transfer will be for 500 000 euros.

 

Not a bad price, for us. Hope you enjoy him, he wouldn't have cut it with us, sadly.
