It has been a wacky week in the world of Celtic social media.

With the club crying out for a centre back of real substance, reports online from various outlets have given some hope Celtic are prepared to do another bit of big business before the transfer window closes.

The name that has got a lot of Celtic fans excited is Jeffrey Bruma.

The 26-year-old has a large amount of experience. Playing 94 games in Eredivisie with PSV Eindhoven before his big money move to Wolfsburg in 2016 where the defender has played 71 Bundesliga games to date. Add to that his fleeting appearances in the Premier League as well as 10 appearances in the Champions League – he’s a highly desireable defender.

However, if Celtic are interested, they’re playing hard to get because Jeffrey himself felt compelled to comment on the rumours linking him with a move to Glasgow.

“I have read about Celtic’s interest in me but nobody has spoken about it, either with me or with my agent,” the defender told The Sun.

“I am under contract with Wolfsburg, and I don’t want to talk a lot about my future.”

Celtic have been busy over the past 24-hours, hoping to land a deal for Aberdeen’s Scott McKenna – after their initial bid has been thrown out the club either have to up their bid or move on. Will they contact Jeffrey and Wolfsburg before the deadline?

  1. C’mon Celtic ffs get the finger out and get defenders in, we need to have players in who can cope with in form Morales, we know one decent tackle and he’ll spit the dummy out. GGAW. Hail Hail

    • I heard we are not going buy him, so lets get a new old head CH that knows what he is doing and defends that hole every time.
      Every team attacks us right in the middle look at hearts game no one there and there are many more games that shows very same a huge hole in our defence, every team in Scotland fancy there chances now we stood still when other teams moved on now some are on a par with us,buy the seasoned CH pros and one seasoned midfield pro before its to late and we have lost all we had won the right to hold season after season.
      Celtic board must buy in now and go for eight then nine and then ten.

  2. He is another injury-prone player. Check him out. Constantly injured. What the hell is happening with the scouting system at Parkhead? Need to get the finger out pronto.

  3. Bought some wasters lately.This may turn out to be a tough season.Everyone knows what we need.What is wrong with our scouts.Should never have been in this position.Looks as if we have left it to late.Could cost us dearly.
