Celtic close on Kamara

Skysports.com understands Celtic are lining up a loan swoop for Fulham forward Diomansy Kamara before the transfer window closes.

Kamara has found himself well down the pecking order at Fulham and he is keen on a move away in search of regular first-team football.

Celtic boss Tony Mowbray is ready to offer Kamara a switch to Parkhead as he looks to continue his reshaping of the current Bhoys squad.

Mowbray is a big admirer of Kamara having worked with him during his time in charge of West Brom and he is hoping to tie up a loan deal before the transfer window slams shut on Monday.

A number of Premier League clubs were thought to be keen on signing Kamara, but it appears Celtic have won the race to land the Senegal international on loan until the end of the season.

Kamara is expected to travel up to Scotland this weekend to tie up the deal which he has arranged through his own agency.

Kamara could be a replacement for Scott McDonald with the Australian international being linked with moves to both West Ham and Middlesbrough.

Why loan him out? Does not make any sense. Sell him and use the funds or keep him for depth.

ludicrous decision, with aj out injured till who knows when.....crazy roy crazy

[scotty]

ugh. Kamara on the way out, we loose out on mosses and a rare home loss..what a day  ???

[LRCN]

he's confirmed it on his facebook pretty much.

Well, I actually agree with this decision. I think we should be aiming higher than Kamara and need to off load him. We nearly managed this in the summer but it fell through.  I assume that no one has come in with a firm bid to buy him, so let's ship him out and at least get him in the shop window.

We have a replacement coming in.

Was just saying to ElBee in the pub before the game how useful he could have been today.

What do I know Roy?

Then we must move AJ, BZ, Nevland, and Elm as well, as Dio is as good or better than all of them.

Have to disagree with that Mr CCD. Maybe he's better than the rooted Elm, but I wouldn't trade any of the other three for Dio. He is crap, plays one good game a year, and is always injured.

[Scrumpy]

Yep, what Finn said!

Dio is 4th choice striker in my eyes.

Nah, hes the most clutch, has the most pace, and is the most techincally gifted of the bunch by far. The only thing I can ever say about him is he missed that 1 on 0 at chelsea a few years back when we drew 0-0.

And Finn, Im pretty sure youre describing AJ.  ;D

[finnster01]

No one is more clutch than Nevland. Gentleman Jim nods in agreement

lol, ok. i stand dueled to a draw.

[os5889]

Nonsensical thinking in my view unless we have 2 coming in.
