Overview
- Celtic have made a concrete approach for Jari De Busser as they seek a long-term goalkeeper after Kasper Schmeichel’s retirement.
- De Busser told VI this week that he wants to “take the next step” and enters the final year of his contract, which gives buying clubs negotiating leverage.
- Go Ahead Eagles have already signed Kjetil Haug from Toulouse as a planned replacement and are positioned to sell De Busser to avoid losing him for free next summer.
- Parkhead are also assessing other targets including Dundee’s Jon McCracken and RB Salzburg’s Bobby Clark while Viljami Sinisalo remains the current starter.
- Celtic are pressing recruitment now despite no permanent manager to avoid last‑minute deals, a move that could bring competition for the No.1 spot and affect transfer budgets this summer.
