    I don't think that Norwegian club will get 7m for Orjasaeter. I think we could get him closer to 4 or 5 with some hefty add ons. If we can get another winger about 10m we should and could be doing both.

    Need to prep as Kuhn may not even be here past the summer

    It would be comfortably more than £12m, you get a one off bonus payment of €11m if you make last 16. Although even if we make the playoff we will be a massive underdog whoever we get in the knock out round.

    If you assume by beating YB we would come around 19th that one win is worth about £7m based on.

    Game win bonus - €2.1m
    Bonus for reaching playoff -€1m
    League placing 19th vs 25th - close to €2m better off.
    Extra Home game receipt at average of £50 a ticket - close to €4m
    Total €9m converted to £7.59m

    If we then win that tie you would get the €11m bonus and another close to €4m gate receipt another £12.65m (€15m).

    So to make last 16 is worth £20m via playoffs.

    I 100% agree, to me we should sign one of those wingers and Kvistgaarden regardless of Kyogo’s status. I think it would give us great versatility in the front 3.

    Kyogo, has shown he can be effective playing wide or just off another striker, Maeda can play wide or through the middle, Kvistgaarden can play wide, off a striker or the main role, then you have Kuhn wide right, another winger to do the same of the left and when fit again a veteran James Forrest to see out games or play an hour here and there.

    I don’t think it is all the clubs fault as the new scheduling in Europe and the window let’s face it isn’t working well by the looks of it for most clubs. However, we are clearly poor at the process of recruiting players and the time it takes us to get deals done. We also come across as very short sighted in our squad management.

    16th January and we're 'considering' a move for a player. Personally I would consider my targets in the months leading up to the opening of the window in order to be able to make a move quickly but there you go.

    I presume you've missed our last 10 windows mate. :giggle1:

    Long accepted our way of business is never changing given how we were forced to spend 20 million in the last week of the summer window.

    Celtic are considering a move for Real Valladolid winger Raul Moro with a view to a January transfer.

    The 22-year-old is on a list of targets as Brendan Rodgers looks to freshen up his squad for the remainder of the season and potentially Champions League knockout round games.

    Moro, a Spain Under-21 international, has caught attention with performances for struggling Real Valladolid with four goals and two assists from 19 appearances this season.

    Ajax have already confirmed their interest in the winger, and an £8.5m transfer fee has been reported as required to sign the player.

    Celtic boss Rodgers has said that he would like to add new faces this month, but after his side’s 3-3 draw with Dundee on Tuesday, he said there were no imminent signings.

    Moro spent time as a youth player at Espanyol and Barcelona but moved to Lazio in 2019. He played 20 games for the Serie A club but was put out on loan spells to Ternana, Real Oviedo, and then Real Valladolid.

    That move was made permanent last summer, and Moro has been a success with the Spanish club, which is owned by former Brazil star Ronaldo. Valladolid is said to be considering selling the winger to invest in other areas of the team.

    RONALDO is set to sanction the sale of Celtic target Raul Moro — if the £8.5million asking price is met.

    The Brazil icon and Real Valladolid owner is willing to flog the La Liga strugglers’ star man this month — despite being in the middle of a relegation scrap

    Celtic are battling Ajax to land winger Moro and Spanish sources claim Ronaldo wants £6m up front — plus £2.5m in add-ons.

    The 22-year-old joined Valladolid from Lazio last summer for £2m after a successful loan stint.

    Moro has been his side’s shining light this season but Ronaldo is willing to cash in — to the fury of his club’s fans.

    The Spain Under-21 cap has four goals and two assists and his form has caught the eye of several bigger clubs.



    Moro started his career at Espanyol and had a year in Barcelona’s youth ranks before joining Lazio.

    He made 20 top-team appearances for the Serie A side — but has really started to fulfil his potential at Valladolid.

    Ajax looked to have landed him last week but have yet to get a deal over the line.

    Celtic have scouted Moro and could pounce as boss Brendan Rodgers looks to bolster his attacking options

    Excited by this, but...

    LB followed by DMF should be our priority.

    Given this link and others, and the expected arrival of Tierney, it looks like Rodgers is going to completely neglect the need for a defensive mid.

    That's more than a fair offer for him imo.

    Get him in.

    £6m is fair.

    Do it and get Barry or get Orjasaeter for a similar price. Sorted. This guy can play both sides.

    He’d add a good blast of power to our attacking force.

    Ajax stops negotiations with Real Valladolid over MoroAjax transfer news: Ajax stops negotiations with Real Valladolid over Moro


    Raúl Moro will not make the move to Ajax, Spanish media report. The Amsterdammers cannot meet the demands of Real Valladolid and therefore withdraw from the negotiations. Celtic is now the favorite to take over the attacker


    Ajax has been looking for a new left winger for some time due to personnel problems in that position. In the summer, Steven Bergwijn (sold to Al-Ittihad) and Carlos Forbs (loaned to Wolverhampton Wanderers) left, without a replacement being recruited. Due to the long-term injury of Amourricho van Axel Dongen, Mika Godts is the only fit specialist left winger in Francesco Farioli's selection.


    Moro was seen as the top candidate to strengthen Ajax's attack. The 22-year-old winger had already

    reached a personal agreement with Ajax

    , but the financial demands of Real Valladolid are too high for the current number two of the Eredivisie. The Spaniards are aiming for a transfer fee of ten million euros. Ajax would have offered seven million euros earlier and then wanted to include Owen Wijndal in the deal to reduce the asking price.
    The Daily Mail previously reported that Celtic are considering making a bid for Moro, after the Scots had previously informed Real Valladolid of their interest. The difficult negotiations between the Spanish relegation candidate and Ajax


    were mentioned by the British newspaper as an opportunity for Celtic

    Just watched some clips. Very direct. Gets to the line, can cut inside, can play both sides. Another kuhn essentially.

    Like the look of this guy out of all the wingers we've been linked with, plus he's playing at a higher level than any of them
