Sporting Director Considering Exercising Celtic Transfer Option

ALBIAN Ajeti is a forgotten name amongst the Celtic support.

Celtic, and their fans, would love to see Albian Ajeti‘s future finally settled, and it looks like they could get their wish.

Sturm Graz‘s Sporting Director, Andreas Schicker, recently revealed that any deal for the 26yearold striker is still firmly in the balance, with no decision made yet.

Since joining the Austrian Bundesliga side on loan from Celtic at the start of the season, Ajeti has scored four goals in 22 appearances, but his future remains uncertain.

The club’s sporting director responded to a question about Ajeti’s future, saying: [Daily Record]

“That is still open. Fortunately, we can still exercise the purchase option after the end of the season and therefore want to wait a few more games before we go on an exchange with Celtic.”

If Sturm Graz doesn’t take Ajeti on this summer, Celtic will likely struggle to find a club that will. He’s had a good few years of poor form and injuries.

OneFootball has the buy option on Ajeti’s loan priced at £2.5 million, quite a steep fee for a striker who isn’t banging them in every week.
