MIKEY JOHNSTON has been linked with a few loan moves away from Celtic over the past few weeks but is yet to seal a move. As far as the reports have informed us, no loan deal is imminent for the winger.
Ange Postecoglou has spoken about how he’s keen to get the player some minutes, believing he’s a good player and is in need of a run of games. He won’t be able to feature regularly at Celtic, with some top-quality wingers already at the club and a player capable of playing on the flanks close to completing a Celtic move.
Speaking ahead of Sunday’s match against Hearts, Ange Postecoglou spoke highly of Mikey Johnston, saying; [Celtic TV]
“Mikey is someone I’m really keen to get some game time. I think he’s an outstanding talent; he just hasn’t been able to get a good run of games. I think a different environment for him where he can [get a good run of games], he can start realising the potential we all know he has. He’s training well.”
There were high hopes for the player at Celtic, but he’s been unable to live up to the expectations, and a loan move would be the best thing for his career at the moment.
It’ll be interesting to see how things progress throughout the remainder of the transfer window.
