Overview
- Multiple outlets report Emenalo travelled to Glasgow on Wednesday to hold talks with Celtic and tour Celtic Park and the Lennoxtown training ground.
- Celtic see him as an option to provide competition and cover for Kieran Tierney at left-back as they finalise their squad for European fixtures.
- Celtic prefer a season-long loan for Emenalo, but no agreement has been announced and the club has not ruled out a permanent deal.
- Chelsea have recently added left-back options such as Pep Chavarria and Valentin Barco, which has increased positional competition and made a temporary move more likely.
- Emenalo is a Cobham academy graduate who has youth caps for England and the United States and is the son of former Chelsea technical director Michael Emenalo, and a loan would fit Chelsea’s broader plan to place young players for regular senior minutes.
