Celtic have activated a clause in their loan deal for Odsonne Edouard (20) with Paris Saint-Germain to sign the player on a four-year permanent contract. The deal will cost the club an initial £4.5m but the add-ons which follow will soon make the deal the club’s highest transfer fee paid.
To give some perspective, Celtic last broke their transfer fee record with the £6m purchase of Neil Lennon in 2000.
Watching Odsonne develop during his loan period has been an education. Brendan Rodgers put Moussa Dembele and Leigh Griffiths on the bench to allow Odsonne the game time he needed to grow. His early-season rustiness was history by March, when he came off the bench when Celtic were down to 10 men at Ibrox, brushed aside what defences there was, to score a memorable winner.
The last player to match our record transfer fee was John Hartson in 2001. Like John then, Odsonne is third choice striker, so the work does not stop here.
Great business, well done all concerned.

how does the VAR thing work in the world cup?
I thought it was only used in four situations: goals, penalty decisions, red cards and cases of mistaken identity.
there was a clear foul by Costa on Pepe in the lead up to the goal … but it was more than a few seconds before he scores …..
is this like a continuation foul in basketball?
Pepe is a horrible cheating bassa.
Probably end up at the manky mob when he is 40

Ronaldo becomes only the fourth player to score at four World Cups
Wee Andy Iniesta is my favourite fitba player in the world. He can win this game.

Best game of the tournament so far,imo.
Easily the best game. Great team in possession v a great team out of possession, played at a very high tempo.
Best game so far, the speed of the passing and the touches is a joy to watch.
Great news today about Edouard, another jem in the hoops.
Wondering if Rebel Rebel by the late Bowie could be Treble… Treble. Just a thought for the song writers on here.
Old Phil has been churning out some stuff over the last 2 days
Sevco’s new training gear is the same as Pollock United
spain v portugal feels like a big brother v. little brother game …
Horrible tackle there by Pepe – should have been booked
CR7 thru de Gea lrgs

Aye fair enough Gary it’s not something I’d use in my Lexicon of Celtic fitba talk.

Pepe should get banned for blatant cheating, as bad a diver as i have seen
Bada Bing
Pepe and Ramos …. two of the biggest cheats in the game … and a shame really as both are not bad footballers, so they dont need to cheat …

I’m sure I read on the BBC it was Gerrard v Rogers earlier today? Tonight it’s Rogers v Gerrard.
Why was it changed? At whose behest was it changed?
