Rumours I've heard this week in the papers/ news websites etc.:

Foreigners:
Aldo de Nigris (striker, Monterray)
Sources in Mexico are claiming we've already made a $4 M dollar bid for him (could swear I posted this with the source yesterday). Could see this taking place as he's a wiry target man which we need though the price seems a bit hefty (albeit being in dollars so maybe between 2.5 and 3 million sterling) considering I don't think we'll spend more than 2 or 3 million before we know how much we'll get from transfers which I think has to be a priority.

Jorge Claros (defensive midfielder, Motagua)
According to Pedro Ayala the Motagua president we're in discussions with them over signing him (and he sounds like he's resigned to losing him in the interview). Supposedly known for being a solid tackler, former team-mate of Izzy and Honduran international. Don't see Kayal leaving. Possible replacement for Brown?

Diego Biseswar (winger, Feyenoord)
We're after him according to his agent (Jeroen Hogwerf), but no contact has been made with Feyenoord. Unless we have a major winger clearout I don't see this happening as according to wikipedia he's a left winger (and we have Commons who's unplayable at the moment and Maloney) but I've heard through word of mouth he can play both flanks.

SPL:
David Goodwillie.
Apparently we're in for him as well as Rangers and a few teams down south. Don't see him ending up here personally and actually hope he doesn't. Good prospect but I reckon overrated and isn't the most focussed on the job.

Darren Randolph
Think this is just media speculation with no-one worth taking seriously coming out and saying anything about his link. Decent keeper but I think we should consider carefully try for more established ones first.

Jonny Russell
Can't remember where I heard this. Looked pretty good in our last game against United but haven't seen him much this season.

Rangers fan here (In peace)

If i was a Celtic fan I wouldn't be happy with the Darren Randolph link due to the amount of mistake he's made against us. Personally I think Celtic could do alot better, Just wondering what you all think about him? {Ed007's Note - I'm not impressed with it what so ever}

Samaras has been told Saturday will be his last game and to look for a club. John Carew has ALREADY been contacted and will be offered a 12 month deal with a one year option if it works out.

I'm posting this because it's in house, but I'm prepared to bet our "friends" in the press have it and will print it, suprise suprise, tomorrow to try and unsettle our cup final perparations. .

Neil Lennon epitomises everything celtic stand for. A true figure for the club that is building a good team, i think he should get a new contract.

Agree if you think he should, disagree if you don't bla bla.

I have heard the johnny russell rumour from a few places so there must be interest at least. I have also heard that we are interested in heskey but this depends on whether leicester splash their cash and offer the big man a return to his former club. They could pay more than most clubs in premiership. Also heard that the 300k will be paid for maguire quick sharp

Emilio Izaguirre looks set to leave Celtic, if Tottenham sell Gareth Bale. Harry Redknapp has been an admirer of Izaguirre at Celtic and has taken note of his clean sweep of player of the year awards. Spurs look set to tempt Celtic with an £8.5million bid for the Honduran.

Nicknamed the Pitbull, midfielder Claros enjoys a reputation in his homeland as an uncompromising tackler.
