Messina midfielder Carmine Coppola is being mooted as a target for Celtic, according to reports in the Italian media.
The 27-year-old was courted by Tottenham Hotspur 12 months ago, but Messina proved reluctant sellers.
Hmmm, sound promising. Anyone see him play?

This is the guy who has had 4 red cards, and 29 yellow cards in one season. Which is a record in Italy.
Booked in nearly every game. -

2 Caps for Italy in the last 12 months.. Thats good enough for me!
-
As BTG says, he has a good pedigree. Does anyone know what his valuation is? -

Neva heard of him, do we really need anotha midfielder?

If it's Tymoschuk then we need another midfielder. If it's someone that I've never heard of then no. Although he does sound good.

Coppola & Kuqi
the italian midfielder and the blackburn forward is the latest to be linked to the club – and instantly dismissed as targets as they do not fit the profile of the men the club want.
Messina are ready to offload twice-capped Coppola for just £250,000, though the Italian club previously quoted Fiorentina £1.35m when they enquired about him. The 27-year-old today claimed to have received an offer from Scotland "which is interesting me". His agent named Celtic, but that is not the case.
A source at Parkhead has indicated Strachan has at no time had Coppola on his radar.
That is also the case with 29-year-old Blackburn hitman Kuqi. Like Bulgarian defender Ivaylo Petkov, these are players who are being put forward to Celtic, rather than men the club are actively pursuing.
Agents have latched on to the fact Celtic still need at least three new players as they head into the final month of the transfer window.
However, despite money being tight, Strachan refuses to take players just to make up the numbers,
So the hunt continues until he can get the men he is confident can do the job required.
Even while travelling with a shadow squad to Japan today, Strachan has been in touch with chief executive Peter Lawell.
these arent players weve been interested in these are players agents are trying to punt to us... the only 2 so far WGS has actively pursued is VOH and tymoschuk so far.Last edited by a moderator: Aug 1, 2006 -

as for coppola if he was that good spurs would have signed him when they had the chance and from what i have seen of him it would just be like signing a slighty faster lennon no way he could replace petrov he is to defensive
-
still 2 caps recently 4 the world champions isnt bad
