Celtic fans are facing a familiar sense of frustration as the winter transfer window nears its end. Anthony Joseph has delivered some disappointing news: there’s still no agreement in place for one of the club’s targeted signings.
With only a few days left to secure deals, the Hoops are once again scrambling at the last minute. It’s a repeat of past windows, leaving supporters wondering why completing transfers seems so much harder for Celtic than it does for other European clubs.
Reports have surfaced almost daily about Celtic entering talks for new signings, yet few of these discussions have produced results. One player linked with the club is Fares Ghedjemis from Frosinone. However, there’s growing concern that this could become yet another transfer saga that collapses, leaving the team with minimal time to pursue alternatives.
According to Anthony Joseph, negotiations with the Italian side are ongoing, but nothing has been finalized so far.
Adding to the uncertainty, Ghedjemis played the full match for Frosinone this past weekend against Virtus Entella. Typically, players close to a move are left out of the squad, which has led some to question the progress of talks. Could this indicate that the deal is not likely to happen? Possibly – and it may explain why Frosinone had no reservations about playing the winger for the entire game.
Given Celtic’s recent transfer history, it wouldn’t be shocking if this deal also falls through. For fans, it’s a reminder that securing signings at the club has once again become a challenging and unpredictable task.
