IE-

Was it not accepted a few weeks ago but Hoffenheim had first dibs on him.Has he knocked them back?

dunno mate. Guy on twitter who seems to be in the know posted it. Just passing on the message.

maybe thats what it is. Hes maybe rejected ze germans and will now talk to celtic.

yep ie i read somewhere he could not reach terms with them?

Cheers lad-Am sure Lennon likes this lad.Hoffenheim were throwing all sorts of money around the last couple of years so hopefully he's not chasing the sheckles yet.

still would rather we got a keeper sorted first

I read that his clubside said that hoffenheim didn't offer anywhere close to what celtic have

have to admit, i know very little about him but seen a good few bhoys raving about him.

The guy on twitter broke the wallace to gers deal early yday before mainstream press etc so seems to know his stuff.

hope your right ie.we do need a striker in.maybe clear out murphy now.

Thought Nottingham Forrest were keen on Murphy. Dont expect any deal for him to be sold will be done until we confirm another forward, possibly Mphela or Musona.

Would think Rasmussen would be allowed to leave, i'd love to know the full story behind him....

Is there a link to the story the deal with hoffenheim broke down? He looks quality .. on youtube

There is a link

Lennon seemed very keen on him, so it'll be a good thing if we get him in over any others.

It's always better to get as close to your first choice as possible.

I couldnt immagine why any player would chose Celtic over Hoffenhiem though.
German league is miles better, has far less of the non football rubbish that we have here, has more big teams, more money, better stadiums, better quality of life.
And Hoffenheim have a few euros aswell, I would have imagined that they would be able to offer him a decent wage. Unless they don't regard him as being a first team regular straight away and have told him that?!

does seem strange pieman.

Maybe he fancies some european fitbaw?

Not sure if hoffenheim qualified for europe this year?

its very unlikely that celtic offered more wages, maybe its to with babel being there so he might not get first team line up guaranteed

on the link i posted it says we're offering the club more money for him. A few comments are saying the club said they weren't going to auction him off and seem a bit upset. But if he comes in it'd be a very good buy

hope we buy him, decent record for scoring goals.

Andy have you read the comments from the South African football fans on the bottom of that link. Just spent 10 mins chuckling away reading them. They call each other cows, and my personal favourite is one fan slagging an Orlando Pirates fan by calling them the Somali Pirates

And I thought you were saying something meaningful, but to my surprise you were farting at the same time vomiting!

That one made me laugh!

musona and de nigris would have been the two strikers i would have wanted us to sign from all the players speculated on over the last couple of months. Hope we do sign this kid looks like a real prospect and a star of the future.

'farting and vomitting at the same time'

hahaha brilliant. Im stealing that as my own!
