Alexandro Bernabei is reportedly on the verge of exiting Celtic.
The 23-year-old defender is understood to have struck a deal with South American club SC Internacional, signalling an end to his time at Celtic Park, at least for the foreseeable future.

Having moved to Celtic 18 months ago from Lanus for a fee of £3.5 million, Bernabei’s journey in Glasgow has been challenging, struggling to secure a consistent first-team place.
Under the guidance of Brendan Rodgers, Greg Taylor has remained as the preferred choice for the left-back role, limiting Bernabei to just nine appearances this season, only four of which were starts, coming when the Scottish full-back was injured.
Efforts to find Bernabei a new club during the January transfer window were unsuccessful. However, the latest reports from South America now indicate that a loan agreement with SC Internacional until the season’s end is close to being finalised, offering Bernabei an opportunity for more regular playing time and a chance to reignite his career back in his home continent.
This potential move comes alongside the impending departure of fellow Celtic player Liel Abada, who is finalising his transfer to MLS side Charlotte FC after completing his medical examination. Abada’s exit appears to be nearing official confirmation.
