Celtic: Fans excited as the club move closer to Josip Juranovic transfer

Celtic fans online have responded with plenty of excitement in regards to a new development in the club’s pursuit of a transfer target.

Sky Sports has recently reported that the Bhoys are now considering a move for Croatian right-back Josip Juranovic who is valued at £2.5m.

The same article explains how the club were initially looking at Royal Antwerp’s Aurelio Buta, but £5m seems to have been deemed as too high a price to pay.

Bhoys Analytics relayed the news on Twitter alongside a highlights video of the player, and plenty of Celtic supporters were engaging with the post.

What did these Celtic fans have to say?

“Juranovic to Thomas Henry could be a cheat code, get it done.”

@MatthewM1888

“Get in. Twice the player for half the money, comparing to Buta.”

@RabCorbett2

“Looks quality.”

@matthew_lickley

“Fingers crossed. Would be a major addition to the squad and not before time.”

@jhnmcgnly

“How in god’s name are we the only team going for him? This boy should be at the top already. No excuses if we mess it up.”

@ReissFerguson

“Just need a CF willing to attack a ball in the box if we sign him.”

@Spuggy1967

It’s clear these Celtic fans are more than excited about Juranovic’s potential link-up play with another one of their current transfer targets.

Indeed, The Times has reported that Thomas Henry may soon arrive in Scotland as the Bhoys pursue a £7m move for the striker.

The same report states that current Celtic forward Odsonne Edouard is ‘set to leave the club for a big-money move to England’ – so this should provide the Scottish giants with enough money to sign both Juranovic and Henry.
