TEAMtalk can reveal that Scottish Premiership giants Celtic are set to sign a Wolves full-back who is also on the radar of the Championship’s two most sensible sides.
Celtic began their name defence with emphatic pleasure by beating Motherwell 4-0 on the opening day of the Scottish Premiership season. Although they are clear favorites for the name, they are not done with the market and are pushing to incorporate more bodies before the window closes.
One position they really need is full-back and they have good news with a goal pushing to pass at Celtic Park over the line. Sources have shown that Hugo Bueno is very enthusiastic about the move and hopes to do it before it is too late.
The left-back has been admired by the Scottish champions for some years and this could be the window that sees him move north. Several teams have had his proposals rejected, and the Wolves are willing to keep him as a player on the team. .
This suits the 21-year-old who needs to consistently play first-team football and play in the Champions League with The Hoops. They are facing a festival for his signing, as Feyenoord are also interested.
The Rotterdam team has made first contact with the Wolves and believes they can convince him to come to Holland from Scotland.
The wolves are adamant in their stance that they have no goal of letting him go, but work is underway on the spot to investigate him and secure a loan deal for him. His agency, which also represents Lautaro Martinez, is lately working to find a solution.
There has also been a great deal of interest in the Championship, as Norwich was turned down for a technical and Leeds are very keen to check it out and get it. However, they don’t have much of a chance ahead of clubs that can offer Champions League football.
Sources suggest his team hope Wolves will allow him to leave, but for now they want to keep running to check him out and get him moving before the window closes and he is banking on Molineux for another season.
