Cardiff City has emerged as a potential destination for Celtic winger James Forrest, as the Welsh club shows interest in signing him before the transfer window closes. [PLZ SOCCER] This development comes amid Cardiff’s ongoing efforts to finalise a deal for Celtic midfielder David Turnbull. If both deals are completed, it would see a Celtic duo joining Cardiff by the end of the day, potentially transforming the team’s dynamic.
Forrest, who has been a peripheral figure in the Celtic squad recently, could find a new beginning at Cardiff. His move would follow in the footsteps of Turnbull, who is in the process of completing his transfer after Celtic agreed to a £2 million fee for the midfielder. Turnbull’s departure, influenced by his contract nearing its end and his mixed performances at Celtic, marks a significant shift in his career.
Additionally, Cardiff has already secured Nat Phillips on loan, another former Celtic player who has already joined their ranks. Phillips, who was previously on loan at Celtic, was recalled by his parent club Liverpool and subsequently loaned out to Cardiff.
The potential addition of Forrest to Cardiff’s lineup, alongside Turnbull and Phillips, could bring a fresh Celtic influence to the Championship side, offering both Forrest and Turnbull new challenges and opportunities to reignite their careers in a different environment.
