Many Celtic fans have flocked to the latest tweet that Paris Saint-Germain defender Presnel Kimpembe recently posted.

Kimpembe recently replied to a post from the official Celtic Twitter account and the French defender wished the Hoops well for their upcoming season. His tweet also carried the fingers crossed emoji at the end. This tweet from Kimpembe came following Paris Saint-Germain’s recent 4-0 win over Celtic in a pre-season friendly.

Would you like Kimpembe at Parkhead?

I'd love that

I'd love that

No, that won't happen

No, that won't happen

This post from the Frenchman caught the attention of many Celtic fans. Many of them urged him to join the Parkhead side soon.

Starting with an easy one- apart from Paris Saint-Germain, which other French club did Edouard play for?

Kimpembe had featured for PSG against Celtic in the recent friendly. He had started the game, which saw Kylian Mbappe, Neymar, Ander Herrera and Pablo Sarabia score for the Parisiens (via Daily Record).

Despite the 24-year-old’s value of £25.20 million, some more Celtic fans urged Kimpembe to join the Bhoys at some point.

Clearly, a lot of these Celtic fans would like to see Kimpembe at Parkhead, with a couple of them suggesting swap deals as well. A couple of others feel that he should join Celtic on loan soon.

Kristoffer Ajer has been linked with a move away from Celtic and if he does leave, Neil Lennon’s men may need a central defender in the summer. Celtic’s transfer record for an incoming signing stands at £9.27 million and that is what they paid to sign Odsonne Edouard permanently from PSG themselves therefore in order to sign Kimpembe they would need to more than double that outlay.
