Cho Gue-sung

Although the scenario you lay out is an educated guess, and highly possible, it still is speculation. We'll never know for a fact how our pursuit has went and how any talks have progressed.

It's just been a pain in the hole the way it's been played out but at the end of the day, you've got to have faith in Ange to make the right call. If he thinks a player is deliberately * him around I've no doubt he'd shut it down pretty quickly, which means if he ends up signing him then you've got to assume we've all jumped to conclusions about the boy, due to our frustration.

For the record I'm not overly fussed if he comes or not, just think Ange won't bring in anyone who is not the right type of character.

 

His club have accepted our offer as well as the other striker! Up to player now

 

So we've had offers accepted for both Korean strikers? Wonder of they'll both end up here.

 

Cho can * off.

 

For this window or is it the summer I see Seoul CFC are saying we have a bid accepted and up to Cho what he wants to do?

 

I had a feeling something might happen since he is in Barcelona. Wee trip to paradise might see him either, a) * it. Or b) he signs

 

It isn't exactly a wee trip. He's with his squad. I suppose we can always send him video clips of home atmosphere.

 

Was meaning a wee trip to celtic park whilst he is at training camp. Couple of days to take jn the scenery of paradise

 

We left our offer on the table over the weekend with a view to bringing him in this month. If it doesn’t happen this month, I’d be surprised if it happened in Summer.

 

I might be clueless about how football works, but I thought a player can't leave the training camp as he pleases?

 

Im going by if a bid has been accepted and he's only a couple of hours away. Might as well see what the deal is

 

so we haven't pulled out then, interesting.

 

It’s weird for me this one with everyone concerned at the Korean side.

they have been a nightmare to deal with but from what I have read regarding Cho

1. They appoint Ji-Sung park who agrees to negotiate on their behalf with European clubs.
2. Player says he wants Europe, name drops Celtic, but wants guarantees on playing time.
3. Mainz come in, bid it’s rejected. Immeaditely tell Kicker they are out
4. Celtic reportedly make bid of £3m plus up to £5.2m more in sell-on after the talks.
5. Park then tells him after days of talks with Celtic best not to move to Europe in winter
6. Cho then says he doesn’t feel fit enough
7. Celtic leave offer on table
8. Club now desperate to cash in and trying to get Celtic back to table
9. Cho has said he doesn’t know what he wants to do.
10. Celtic have said this window or we walk away totally

That about sums it up a think unless you know anything else @McGrory1888 and it’s all came from Korean media!

 

what a mind *

 

whole situation is an absolute mess tbh. Wonder why they've now accepted the offer. Maybe Cho has realised that he isn't going to get the offers from countries that he wanted.

 

See if this was Scottish media I would be like aye right * are guessing but points 1-9 are all from Korean media!

 

So basically his club and agent tried to play hardball to get more money, it’s blown back and now they want to take whatever they want now. Would be half tempted to tell them to * off.

 

So really no * actually knows what’s going on then


And it’s pure guesswork at this point

 

Korean media seems to have had quotes direct from everyone involved though crow which surely gives it some credibility
