According to Twitter close to signing him from Celtic. Anyone heard of him or where does he play?

when interviewed about the move he said nothing.

Apparently the keatings say it best when they say nothing at all

Very, very good scoring record at youth level for Celtic and Scotland. I have to be honest and say I've not heard of him before, but seems like a goalscorer.

This is on football rumours, looks to be a goal machine at youth level, perhaps it's another Bang to go with the other Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bangs ?

Ooh that's worrying. I doubt he'll do anything in his career if he still hasn't scored after 4 whole first team appearances. :facepalm:

i agree with you, and perhaps I am looking at this in the wrong way, if he is back up ie, a young striker given some experience and will come through in a couple of years, thats fine, but isnt that what Jeffers is for, and we have Ball to play his part this season, i'm just hoping for someone who you know will give you 10 goals mimimum this season to help cody !

I wish we were signing MacLeod. He's Scottish sounding and has had injuries..but quick and full of goals.

When people have said they want a striker, they say a goalscoring striker is the priority. This kid scores bagfuls for the Celtic youth team.

No signing is guaranteed to score goals, so by all means sit there hoping for a proven goalscorer to join us, but it won't happen, we might as well take a punt on a kid who might score goals.

We can't afford and I doubt even attract a proven goal scorer so we have to take these chances - in our current situation personally I'm happy with that - one of these 'chances' - remember these guys are all trying to make/save their careers and have few options open to them - I think one or two may well come good for us

Celtic missed out on a place in the semi-finals of the Hong Kong Sevens after losing 2-1 to Newcastle. James Keatings put Celtic in front in the first half but the Premiership side hit back after the break with goals from Adam Campbell and Brandon Miele...

well collins would have been that guy !

I agree with you, every signing is a punt, but we have cody, mcsheffrey, ball, rod, jeffers, daniels.....

we dont need to add to that list, we need to improve it.

Maybe this is the guy to do that ?
