Clickbait "Palace in Pole position to Sign Celtic Striker"

Or if you prefer "Palace join race to sign Brighton target"

Both articles claim we are in for Edouard and are ahead of Brighton, but they then say we haven't tabled a bid.

So how can we be making progress if we haven't even made an offer.

Celtic are in talks to sign a Greek striker from Dutch second division side VVV. He scored 26 goals in the Eredivisie last season when his team was relegated!

One of the Palace ITKs on Twitter has said that we have no interest in him

Edouard makes sense, he can play striker and winger if needed.
He is a proven goalscorer and is available for only 15 mil!
Would I have gone for Armstrong over him...yes! But we must move onto the next targets!

Only thing that worries me is that the scottish league is such a lower standard then the prem!

But, then isn't the Championship, given how difficult promoted teams find it to stay up in the PL more than a season or two even after heavy spending?

Having said that I haven't seen a single reasonably reliable source even hint that we have an interest in Edouard, so either we aren't interested or we've managed to keep our interest well hidden.

£15m seems like a bargain in the PL but the transfer record in Scotland is still Tore Andre Flo to Rangers - £12m, Celtic’s record is £6m for Chris Sutton and they were both in 2000 so this would be a lot to Celtic particularly since his contract only has a year to go. His reported wage demand, £85,000 p/w, would make him the third highest earner at Palace but he is a skilful player and can score goals.

That’s the truth of it. Most of the time it’s nothing more than anyone that can put out a message trying to read our options. It’s not hard in our own way we all do it. Most of the time it is never going to be a reality just an option that we could all have identified anyway.
Abraham, was never, coming to us at that money, but the fact that he was coming loose from Chelsea, was enough to sow a seed for the rumour makers.
Likewise Edouard, has been linked to us for a couple of seasons now, as far as I can see for no other reason than , with what was Benteke,s poor form , people thought he might be the answer.
Nothing to do with if Celtic, want rid, or how much he would cost.
We need cover for Benteke, anyway, if we could afford him ,and Celtic, want rid, Edouard, would be an option, that’s all.

Kieran Tierney transferred to Arsenal from Celtic for £24m. Surely that is the record Scottish transfer.

I’m not sure I believe that the player is on £85k a week. That would make him the highest earner in the league, wouldn’t it?

 


In dog beers I’ve only had one.

That’s received not paid.
