CELTIC look like they’re ramping up their efforts on the transfer front with both incomings and outgoings in the next few days.
No sooner did the news Sead Hacksabanovic had touched down in Glasgow, it’s being reported Christopher Jullien is set to undergo a medical in France ahead of a move back to his home country.
French publication L’Equipe has confirmed the Hoops defender will undergo a medical at Montpellier in the next 24 hours and seal a switch away from the club.
Chris has been fit and available for selection since January time but the manager, Ange Postecgolou has opted not to use the centre back.
A Scottish Cup cameo is the only competitive outing Chris has gotten under Ange’s regime.
Jullien was a big hit within the support when he first burst onto the scene from Toulouse under Neil Lennon. The defender scored the winning goal against Lazio as well as the League Cup final against Rangers.
He was a popular player, but after an injury during the ill-fated lockdown season and his year out of the game in rehab, his Celtic career has passed him by.
Ange clearly doesn’t see it in the 29-year-old and due to the money he’s on, it’s best the defender does leave. It’s not confirmed if this will be a loan deal like the failed Schalke move, or a permanent move.
It’s not a certainty yet, the medical will be viceroys because of Christopher’s year away from the game with his knee problems.
