Vakoun Issouf Bayo

Just scored a goal that might put his team up. If that’s correct?



Actually naw they’re getting beat on aggregate

 

Be interesting to see what happens with him now. Toulouse remain in Ligue 2. He’s scored what? 14 goals for them? Not a bad return.

 

So many headers he's scored, I hope we keep him for next season

 

Can see them exercising the option now he’s done well for them

 

TOULOUSE have confirmed they have made an attempt to sign Celtic outcast Vakoun Bayo permanently and the player 'wants to stay' with them.

Bayo impressed during his spell on loan at the French second tier club with 12 goals, including one in the play-off, second leg game at Nantes, where they lost out on away goals.

Toulouse has an option to buy the 24-year-old and still have some time to make a decision whether they will take up that offer on Bayo, who cost Celtic £2million in 2019 when he signed a four-year deal from the Slovakian side Dunajska Streda.



Now club president, Damien Comolli, in a meeting with the club's supporters, revealed they were now doing everything in their power to get Bayo to return to France.

He said: "Vakoun Bayo wants to stay with us and he has now received our proposal.


French side Sochaux were linked with Bayo this month and Tunisian champions Esperance were also credited with an interest in the Ivory Coast international.

Since making the move to Celtic, Bayo has scored four goals in all competitions but that has only come in 19 appearances overall.

 

I would sell. Sell for a couple of million and get the Japanese boy in for * all.

 

Take what we can and punt. Despite clean slates all round, he won't make it here and never fitting in to Ange-ball.

 

No surprised they want him..

Seemed to hit a decent bit of form later in their season..

 

Hopefully the fee is at least a match with the 2m we paid for him. I would without doubt sell him as like Klimala IMHO he is a lad who did try his best but just is not good enough to make it as a main striker at Celtic.

 

Was never given a chance here... I would bring him home for next season

 

I'd like to keep him personally but makes sense why he'd want to stay there. Clearly value him more than us and a good path to Ligue 1

 

It’s not as if they don’t have the money after getting seven million from us

As long as we get our money back and a sell on I'd not be sad, but it means yet more that we would need to replace and it's now almost July, less than a month away....

 

If it’s true he doesn’t want to stay and the fee is around the £2m we paid for him I would sell. Anyone who is not committed to the cause next season needs to go for me and get someone else in that wants to be.

 

Agreed. I do think he has something about him but if his heart is not in it then not good for either party.

Might be the Toulouse President stirring it mind, so if it doesn't go through I'd have no problems with him staying either if that turns out to be the case.

 

Too many question marks, we could take a chance, hope he turns it around.
But, if we can get 2M, then punt.
When does his contract expire?

 

He has 2 years left.
Sounds like he doesn't want to be here and knows Toulouse will play him and he won't here. Also there will be no language barrier so I imagine it was easier for him to settle.

 

I would sell and get some money in

 

Get rid like Paddy. Doesn't look good enough.
