Aurelio Buta has been tipped to sign for Celtic in a bid to solve the club’s right-back problems.

However, despite Scott Burns declaring earlier today the deal was close – a Belgian journalist has claimed that’s NOT the case and no deal is in place at the moment.

Celtic have been without a right back since Jonjoe Kenny left at the end of last season. Even then, we knew Jonjoe wouldn’t be staying at the club so we could have been looking at targets well in advance of now.

Buta currently plays for Antwerp and played in their weekend game.

The club appear to be very poor at getting deals done in a timely fashion so we can start putting the pieces together. It’s time now to throw caution to the wind and get deals done as a matter of urgency.

The longer we leave vital positions unchecked, the harsher this season will be on the support and the manager.
