I mentioned on here during the week that the club have agreed in principle with Davis but Preston weren't happy with how Celtic conducted their business. Celtic tried to do a permanent deal after they had agreed personal terms with the guy.

It's come back to bite the club in the hole now as it's allowed Liverpool to snipe in.

Jon Joe Kenny of Everton is due up on loan for the reminder of the season with an option to buy at the end.

Celtic back to the drawing board with CBs it would appear.

{Ed007's Note - Celtic were entitled to agree personal terms with Davies as he's in the last 6 months of his contract. Players representatives agree personal terms with clubs all the time before there is any contact with the player, the process should be along the lines of:
Clubs will typically informally ask an agent (a) if the player is going to be available, and (b) would the player consider a move to the club. There may be some broad discussion on the sort of deal that would be offered but no more than that. If the answer is yes, it is then necessary for the club to approach the player's club to ask if they would be willing to sell and if they would grant permission to speak to a player's agent formally about a transfer and possibly even the player about actually making a move. This will typically involve either broadly (through an offer) or actually agreeing a fee and responsibility for any significant costs (agents fees etc.). Once this has happened the club will be able to speak to the player's agent and perhaps the player himself to look at the package that will be involved. Many players are looked at and discussed at a high-level with agents and clubs; a subset of those have an offer placed; a subset of those involve discussions with the player's club; a subset of those involve discussions over terms, and; a subset of those go ahead.}

So what your saying Daiti94 is Davis away kenny in? CB nowhere near getting now?

Mail Online (for what they're worth) confirming the lad JonJoe Kenny has finalised a loan deal from Everton until the end of the season.

The way we're playing I hope he's not counting on win bonuses.

Celtic stated publicly that they informed Preston that they were talking to Davis. Preston said they didn’t.

{Ed007's Note - Whether they did or didn't they didn't need to.}

My point is someone is lying.

{Ed007's Note - Well it's not me! 😁 And as long as it ain't you it's cool. Let's not get into the amount of footballing lies that have been found it though.}

Ed is 100% right Celtic are well within their rights to approach the player without the clubs consent as they did with the Moussa Dembele deal.

However from the info I was sent Celtic approached Davis without speaking to his parent club, therefore when Celtic had agreed terms and tried to get a permanent deal over the line Preston dug their heels in. All this wasted time allowed for Liverpool to come circling.

In this instance Celtics transfer dealings have left them with egg on their face. I stated before on here Nick Hammond is poor at his job. A guy who was sacked by WBA was put in charge of our transfer dealings ahead of one of our biggest seasons.

Jonjoe Kenny alongside a CB should be done before close of play with the window.

Any names for the CB Daithi94?

If Davis really wanted to sign for us, he would of signed pre-contract by now. I've no doubt Davis would have known about Liverpool interest and entered into talks with us to encourage Liverpool to make their move.

Bit gutted about this one, app Liverpool have got him for 1/ 2 a million, other teams such as Burnley and sheff Utd were looking at him. I haven’t seen him but them teams especially Burnley know good defenders and for the outlay seemed a no brainer. The worst bit I read that we were waiting for today to bid for him, that just smacks of us waiting to see if we could save a couple of hundred grand if no one came in for him.
He could have saved us a good few million .
Left sided centre backs are a bit of a rarity especially in our price bracket.

So why was the pre contract not signed?
