The loan offer Celtic received from Fortuna Sittard includes an option-to-buy clause.
Both clubs are currently negotiating a suitable fee for the player. The Dutch window shuts at 11 pm CPT.
It is now a sweat for the Everdivise side, however, Soro does have onlookers from across Europe and America. If the deal fails to surface, his agents could still find a move for the player.
Soro sticking around until at least the summer window wouldn’t be the worst-case scenario. With significant medium-term injuries hampering the squad at the moment, he may have a part to play in Celtic’s upcoming fixtures.
