With the Kyogo rumour exploding, Celtic Park’s transfer window is becoming hotter.
Amidst rumours of interest in Celtic forward Kyogo Furuhashi, former sporting director Frederic Massara has tried to silence rumours about a fight that occurred behind the scenes at Stade Rennes.
The 29-year-old is the subject of rumours about a dispute between manager Jorge Sampaoli and the chief. The Argentine manager is reportedly eager for his team to pay around £10 million to acquire the Japanese international from Celtic this month. However, with Rennes being eliminated by minnows Troyes from the Coupe de France and facing a relegation battle in Ligue 1, things have reached a boiling point.
When asked about his relationship with the boss, Massara came out swinging in an interview with Ouest France. “The staff is working well, and we are confident that things can get better,” he said. That is not the issue; we must begin with the players.
“I am very disappointed with the team at the moment,” he said when pressed about the January recruitment push in the midst of rumoured dispute over a deal for Kyogo. Don’t worry, we’ll have time to evaluate it. The owner and the club both support us, as evidenced by the fact that we have already brought in key players who can help us get back on track during this winter transfer window. We’ll be prepared to see if there are any chances to fortify ourselves even further. We must now concentrate on the fundamentals. Put up a bit extra effort to win this shirt.
If the Hoops’ lucky charm leaves Glasgow’s east end this summer, Mathias Kvistgaarden of Brondby appears to be one of the leading candidates to take his place. According to Bold, the Danish team is asking for at least £8.4 million in order to sell during the winter transfer window.
It follows reports that RB Leipzig is interested in the 22-year-old this month and will move if they are able to let go of another forward. According to reports, Eintracht Frankfurt and the Premiership leaders are engaged in a “battle” for a contract. Brendan Rodgers is also very interested in acquiring a winger. Raul Moro, a winger for £8.5 million, is reportedly being considered by the Hoops, with Ajax also interested in signing him.
Additionally, Real Valladolid manager Paulo Pezzolano was evasive about his prospects of keeping the 22-year-old this month prior to Friday night’s match against Espanyol. “It’s not all my business,” he said when asked about Moro’s future.
“Based on the market we attempt to make the best decisions for the club. The club is committed, which is what I asked for. Our goal is to have a revitalised team that will perform at its best for the remainder of the season.
