BREAKING NEWS;Celtic deal has collapsed few minutes ago due to

Celtic boss Brendan Rodgers has brought in goalkeepers Kasper Schmeichel and Viljami Sinisalo this summer to fight it out for a place between the sticks.

Expectedly, Schmeichel has come in as the preferred choice under the Irishman. However, there appears to be a succession plan in place, with Sinisalo primed for a future role in the starting line-up.

Scott Bain rounds off the glovesmen for Celtic. In essence, he is now the third choice at the club, supporting the positional pool and holding valuable status as a homegrown asset.

Before the summer window started, there were plenty of questions about who would assume Joe Hart’s duties. Nevertheless, it is one of the areas where the Bhoys have adequately strengthened in the eyes of most supporters.

However, incomings always lead to outgoings and Celtic prospect Tobi Oluwayemi is now closing in on a loan move away from the club.

Tobi Oluwayemi set for Dunfermline Athletic loan move

According to The Daily Record, Oluwayemi is set to complete a move to Scottish Championship outfit Dunfermline on loan after pursuing the Englishman for several weeks.

The 21-year-old is keen to gain regular minutes elsewhere this season, and James McPake’s side are now close to finalising a deal that would see him challenge Deniz Mehmet for the number one jersey.

Oluwayemi was included in Celtic’s pre-season tour of the United States and featured against Ayr United and Queens Park before the trip. He has been on the Pars’ radar for some time, so there will be relief from all sides that an agreement is now in the post.

Last term, he spent time at Admira Wacker in a similar arrangement, keeping five clean sheets in nine matches before injury limited his impact.

At 21 years old, the former Tottenham Hotspur man needs regular exposure to senior football; otherwise, his development will stagnate, making this a smart decision from all involved.
