On the final day of the transfer window, two Celtic players are heading for clubs in the English Championship.
CeltsAreHere understands midfielder David Turnbull is finalising a permanent transfer to a Welsh team, currently completing a medical to conclude the deal. Meanwhile, winger Mikey Johnston has been granted permission to join West Brom on loan for the remainder of the season.
Turnbull, who is approaching the final months of his contract with Celtic, faced the prospect of leaving as a free agent in the summer. However, a £2 million fee has been agreed upon for his transfer from Celtic, an arrangement that is seen as a savvy business decision by the club.
It allows Turnbull, a former Motherwell player, to immediately integrate with his new team. His tenure at Celtic has been a mix of high points and challenges, marked by undeniable talent but also notable inconsistency.
Johnston’s situation is different. The consensus among the Celtic fanbase is that he is unlikely to fulfill his potential at the club.
Therefore, his loan to West Brom is viewed as a step towards a permanent departure in the upcoming summer transfer window.
Celtic have still to confirm the signing of Adam Idah as this article is published. The Irish international landed in Glasgow on Wednesday night and will be unveiled before the deadline.
