    Decision wouldn't be based on money so hopefully he see's sense and a final chance to play in the CL and comes to us.

    Sydney FC? Your better than that!

    For those saying the Sydney deal is 'premature'. He's probably in Sydney now, viewing contract details/having a medical. IF he goes to Glasgow, it would take him over 20 hours on a plane! It's incredibly unlikely we'll sign him, not unless he goes back in time!

    You don't have to be in the same country to sign for a club. Most of the transfer can be done over the phone....i'm sure thats happened quite alot.

    Del Piero likely move is to Oz. @OfficialNeil not doing usual pre match media duties as he's working on possible deals. #BBCSport #Celtic

    Understand what you're saying mate, and yeah a lot of deals are done on the phone. But I'm fairly sure if we wanted to sign Del Piero we'd want a medical first. Due to his age.


    Edit: However, he is a free agent, so I think that means we could sign him whenever, doesn't have to be in a transfer window?

    good point forgot all about the age :smiley-laughing002: Yeah i'm sure if he is a free agent we would be able to sign him at any point in the season.

    Hopefully something comes of this but I won't hold my breathe

    and you were not being arsey in your reply before..... people in glass houses as they say.

    and if he picks there it's for the money and nothing else, someone offers you more money like this you are going to take it :50:

    Just seen this in the Champions league rules:

    18.13 List A has to be submitted by the following fixed deadlines:
    a) 20 June 2011 (24.00 CET) for all matches in the first qualifying round;
    b) 7 July 2011 (24.00 CET) for all matches in the second qualifying round;
    c) 21 July 2011 (24.00 CET) for all matches in the third qualifying round;
    d) 8 August 2011 (24.00 CET) for all matches in the play-offs;
    e) 1 September 2011 (24.00 CET) for all further matches from the first
    match in the group stage up to and including the final

    So even though we can sign him after today he wouldnt be able to play in the champions league.

    my understanding of what i've read is that Del Piero is still in Italy and has been in long video conferences with Sydney FC, with Sydney trying to agree a deal to play there.
    not over till the man signs the contract.
    here's hoping he has a change of Heart and comes here.

    Hmmmm....a lovely winter in Glasgow, or....................a spring and summer in Sydney!!!
    Real tricky one that!

    I think it would have been a waste of time.I agree it would possibly have contributed to dressing room disharmony as i dont really think he would have been happy to come here and sit on the bench!Go for youth, not experience.We have qualified and dont need any mercenary hasbeens.
