Ebe Ambrose gets deadline day drama underway

390

Celtic’s first piece of incoming transfer business this evening was for Nigeria international central defender, Efe Ambrose, 23, who joins from Israeli club Ashod.  I’ve absolutely no recon on Efe but I can tell you he has been our primary defensive target for some time now.  There has been considerable research put into his capture, so there should be few surprises to Neil Lennon and his coaching staff.

Our last venture into Israel, to sign Beram Kayal, was an unqualified success.  If Efe adjusts to life at Celtic as well we will have added an excellent defender to the squad.

Welcome to Celtic, Efe.  Don’t think we’re finished yet.

  1. MIKU! Fresh from Wikpedia! They’re bloody quick!

     

     

    Nicolás Ladislao Fedor Flores (born 19 August 1985 in Caracas), aka Miku, is a Venezuelan footballer who plays for Celtic in Scotland, as a striker.

     

     

    The son of an Hungarian father and a Venezuelan mother, he received his nickname after Miklós, a stem from his first name in the Hungarian language, and spent most of his professional career in Spain, having played for a host of clubs.

    1) You can double check this with Gerry but, after a lifetime in tabloids, he may have forgotten,

     

     

    Compare does not mean equate

     

     

    2) As for me getting back to FF, I’d need to borrow your log-in :-)

     

     

     

    Now, BT assures me that you are no hun. I think you are at the wind up because I’ve never met anyone that daft in real life.

     

     

    Do you mind if I ask two more questions- Were you on any other Celtic website once you stopped writing to the Record? What made you think CQN was the best fit for you?

  3. KevJungle, not heard anything on that target in over a week but it was something we looked at a couple of weeks ago. No info on what happened next.

     

     

    Petec, it sure is.

     

     

    SFFS, so many weeks and months waiting on some fairly non-descript players back then.

     

     

    Lennybhoy, you make an excellent and noteworthy point. When do EPL clubs conclude their squad numbers? Hmmmmm.

    You may well be right if the latest from Wikipedia (see my earlier post) is anything to go by!

    I do not have shares. I know, not a real supporter, eh?

     

     

    But, how much money do you reckon has gone out of the club on dividend payments on average on a yearly basis?

     

     

    Just wanting to make sure that fortunes are not flowing out behind my back

    CU saying DU want £2.1m for Russell, we’ll only pay £1.5M

     

    ——————————————————————————————

     

     

    We must always try to get value for money, it will probably be £1.6 or £1.7 that is settled on as long as noone else is involved. There is no desperate need to sign JR which keeps the price low.

     

     

    Falcao – Sign him.

  7. looks like Fedor is in – 6’1” striker – 40 caps for venezuela. marvin o deal must have fallen through unfortunately.
