Football Reporter Raman Bhardwaj was not popular with Celtic fans on social media Saturday night when he tested ‘Celtic striker news’.

Instead of dropping the news in the first instance, Raman built anticipation for what information he had. Celtic fans were discussing and some hoping there had been movement on the Ivan Toney deal or another quality striker coming into the club.

It turned out to be a damp squib, with the news turning out to be St Mirren are chasing a loan deal for Vakoun Bayo.

St Mirren were very keen on the player in January but Celtic didn’t have enough cover with injuries so they decided to keep Vakoun at the club, only for him not to play.

If Celtic do land another striker, Bayo should be free to pursue a deal elsewhere. It would see another exit for another Brendan Rodgers/Lee Congerton signing which never cut the mustard.
