Sead Haksabanovic’s loan at English Championship outfit Stoke City has been nothing short of underwhelming.

Albeit the Montenegrin winger has experienced several injury issues, a goal and two assists in 21 appearances is by no means impressive.

A cryptic Instagram post where he said ‘If they don’t see your value maybe you’re not at the right place’ last summer didn’t appease the Celtic fans and he soon left temporarily.

Set to return to Glasgow this summer, it doesn’t look like the 25-year-old’s long-term future lies with the newly crowned Scottish champions.

Indeed, a recent report from Swedish outlet fotbolldirekt.se states that there is a wealth of Italian interest in Haksabanovic. It is said that current Serie A sides Torino and Hellas Verona are options for the attacker, with Serie B leaders Parma also in the mix.

For the treble-winner’s services, Celtic want three million euros, one million less than what they signed him for.

Haksabanovic did show talent and glimpses of quality when at the club but in the end, his frustrations over game time got the better of him and now, a permanent exit looks to be on the cards.

  1. Just ended up as the 1st of many squad players under Ange that Rodgers didn’t fancy as a player for ourselves?
    Seems to be an attitude with hako that wasn’t going to fit well within our club in the end?
    Was potential talent within him as a player and thought it could have been better in the longer run than it ended up being, but that also happens within football?
    Now a player who is surplus to requirements for ourselves, so if you add up just how many will find themselves within the same boat at the club during the summer?
    It will possibly be more in incoming fees for the club, than the scum will be able to spend during the summer?
    For the scum to try and make the claim that the gap isn’t that big between ourselves and the scum?
    Wonder what the excuse is going to be for the amount we can get for players we don’t want, will be greater than what the scum needs as a requirement?
