Ange Postecoglou wasn’t giving much away about the future of Giorgos Giakoumakis.
For the third match running the striker was missing from the Celtic squad, with Oh Hyeon-gyu making his debut Giakoumakis is fast drifting further and further out of the picture at Celtic.
Urawa Red Diamonds are reported to have agreed terms with Celtic and even put the striker through a medical but there have been reports over the last 48 ours of Atlanta United coming back in with an offer to pay a transfer fee rather than take Giakoumakis on loan
Asked about the situation with the Greek striker on Sky Sports, The Express reports Postecoglou saying:
It’s still a bit of uncertainty around it. There’s a couple of things in play. It will all get resolved in the next couple of days and hopefully to the satisfaction of all parties.
Postecoglou appears to have moved on from having Giakoumakis as his back-up striker, his trust in Oh looks well placed with the new bhoy looking very comfortable within the Celtic framework in a 15 minute appearance at Tannadice.
The J-League and MSL transfer windows both run into April but a quick decision on the future of Giakoumakis would seem to suit all involved.
If deal is done time for Celtic_fc_1888 to bring in another player they played some nice football in a bad pitch on a windy day kept it on the ground jota returning to form Robertson gave celtic nothing had to get var to let him know it was a penalty and never booked player for deliberate hand ball exact same as tynecastle not given its cheating and they still get games column just booked himself for league Cup final after his performance at ibrox
