Tyrese Campbell from stoke being rumoured. Plays for england u20 and only has 6 months on his contracts. Looks a good prospect when I've seen him play.

There are only so many prospects a team can have. We're crying out for an established striker who can be relied upon in big games.

I agree and disagree. Ideally buying established players is a given it but that costs a lot of money. Getting the next Dembele or Frimpong in and develop is part of our signing policy.

We've got a Dembele and a Frimpong though - plus Afolabi, Oko-Flex, Connell, Robertson and O'Connor all close. Do we really need to sign prospects for our prospects? If he's much better than what we've got then fair enough but the young lads we already have are hardly getting a sniff because of the pressure to win the next 2 titles. We need a recognised striker, no ifs no buts, we have more money than most teams so it's not an excuse.

Will a recognised striker play second fiddle to eddy though. Do we no buy any prospect now then until the end of next season?

Of course they will Cory. Griffiths has been doing it for 3 seasons and Bayo was a God at his last club. There are plenty of recognised strikers who would jump at the chance to be a Celtic player and have enough belief in their own ability that they could force their way into the team.

Bayo was a prospect as well kev. His last club playing in parks that had swings next to them.
We should always be bringing in prospects constantly.
Just because we also need first team players shouldn't stop that.
{Ed007's Note - Bayo was 22 when we signed him and will be 23 next month, that's hardly a prospect in my book, Kev.}

Aberdeen lad Cosgrove he's only 20 he scores a lot is this the type of player we need before ye all go nut I'm not saying buy Cosgrove I'm saying as a player as I genuinely hate when he played against us.
