Sevco saviour in waiting Pedro Caixinha is a fully fledged Celtic fan.
Two weeks after Stewart Robertson started to investigate the outstanding candidates to replace Mark Warburton a video has emerged of congratulating his Celtic brothers on the 2015 SPL title win.

Caixinha has been in talks with Sevco for a fortnight about taking charge after the club dismissed the campaigns to appoint a RRM like Alex McLeish or Billy Davies with Barry Ferguson also included in the dream team.
The video of Caixinha was made while he was managing Celtic’s Mexican partners Santos Laguna.
At present he is in charge of Al Ghafara who are sitting in fifth place in the Qatar Super League.
With less than a year managing a European club on his CV appointing Caixinha was always going to be a risk.
Confirmation of his Celtic credentials won’t go down well with the vast majority of Sevco supporters with a breakdown over compensation with Al Ghafara anticipated to bring the embarrassing saga to an end.
