Reports are saying if Howe come he wants to get Josh king. Remember him being excellent under howe at Bournemouth. He seems to have fallen away abit the last year or so. He's a free transfer though so worth the gameble?

Cory67, as we mentioned on the podcast last night Josh King's salary is much higher than any of our top players. It appears that he is on something around £45k per week at Everton.
Even if he is available on a free transfer his salary expectations would most likely rule us out and it's more likely he could that kind of money in England. If he came in at that kind of money you can be sure a lot of our senior players would be asking for a significant pay rise to either match it or get close to it.
Here's a question though, do you think any fans would even be mentioning his name if Eddie Howe wasn't being touted for the managers job? HH.

Besty, one way around the salary gap with a free transfer like Josh King could be an initial signing on fee with other built in incentives throughout the term of his contract.
I've personnally never heard of him and to be honest, I don't see Howe arriving at Celtic therefore, speculation over this player or others could be purely that 🤔.

Pedro, at the minute EVERYTHING is speculation and that's why it isn't even worth talking about. HH.
