Agents talk to the media when they are not talking to Celtic

1126

One of the problems of doing your business discretely is that if and when agents or selling clubs publicise your interest in their player, media attention has a tendency to attribute too much focus on the most recent name revealed.  Teemu Pukki is a player Celtic have been trailing for some months but the fact that his agent yesterday revealed their interest is no indication that he enjoys any pre-eminence over others strikers being considered.  If anything, briefings from the agent are an indication of the opposite.

Reports yesterday that Pukki is backup in case a bid for Finnbogason fails are also wide of the mark; this is not the active path Celtic are working on.  There are (at least) two other strikers under consideration, neither of whom have directly or indirectly leaked the discussions.

Nothing sells media adverts like transfer ‘news’, which is fair enough, but news is easier to find than the actual story. This is a ‘no news’ article, the easiest of all. No panicking in the back…

    Looking forward to seeing the players play today, whoever they may be.

     

     

    I hope there are at least 5 goals in the game.

    Hope Neil gets his man we defo are thinner on the ground for a striker than we were before, Do not rely on sammy for goals, No kicking the big man or looking for an arguement on the blog, But in the past in the spl the big let us down far far far too many times in my opinion. But on his day he is Legend. KC has to have a good game today or we may struggle in front of goal. Big Moko on his debut?
