Nadir Ciftci to join on loan? - Now Confirmed!

[Bonehead]

Looks good. 6'1, with a bit of a nasty streak.

Scored a lot of goals for Dundee, hasn't really made it at Celtic though and has been loaned out twice already.

If we can get the Dundee version of him then this could be a great signing.

Is this our first Turkish player?

Denis salman was part Turkish me thinks

Looks like an ambitious fish Derek has landed here.

Given that we're alleged to be doing the business on Monday but PVH has gone to the press on Friday, I think it's PVH showing the ambition.

Until I see something official I won't be getting too excited as you could read the way this has come to our attention this evening as his agent trying for 'something a little better' over the weekend.

 

[HarlHM]

apparently my Celtic friend tells me his surname is pronounced `shift key` if that helps.

Cheef-chee I'm pretty sure.

This rumour seems to have something to it. Very promising.

...exactly what some of us were hoping for, in other words.

So i guess you will be at or near the front of the queue to congratulate the manager and club should this happen then Andy

Of course. If it goes through it's a good signing.

I think we've signed well for this season, striker aside (as of yet) - I'm on record with that, not that my opinion counts for anything.

Argyle have always been about team spirit, hopefully if he does come in Derek can do something about that attitude.
Ability is all very well, but it doesn't stop there.
On the bright side Cantona was a well known maverick and he changed the fortunes of united, so you never know...

Not shifty then

 

[Penmaster]

Looks a decent signing on paper but appears to be more a number 10 than the number 9 we need. Unless........

Indeed. Mario Haas anyone?

Ciftci has been left out of Celtic's pre-season schedule and wasn't at their training camp in Austria, he's been training with the Celtic under-20 squad so it will take him a while to come up to Adams' fitness standards.

When fit and focused he looks a very good signing for us, he was good enough for Celtic to pay £1.5m and give him a four year contract in 2015.

Ouch - sounds like a major falling out. I hope this press talk doesn't scupper the move. DA will be fuming with his agent !

 

[Tynan One Nil]

As mentioned by others, signing not yet complete and I am sure Mr Adams could do without another few days of speculation. Struggling to understand why the agent would go public, until it has been done, other than to alert others.
If it happens and if fit, should be a very useful addition.

 

[arrythewurzel]

I heard he nearly bit DA 's hand off when he heard of the interest ... lol ..

 

[Qoo3939L]

Spoke to son-in-law tonight in Scotland.
Massive Celtic fan, said this was all over the Scottish news tonight
that he was joining Argyle
Said he would be a good signing for us
Let's hope so cause he said that about
Cillian Sheriden

That highlights video is actually pretty awful. Scrappy goals with him bundling past a couple of defenders, putting his head in where it hurts or throwing himself at a 50/50 ball. Perfect! We have the skill and tricks in Carey and on the wings now. What we need is someone who is going to make life hell for the opposing defender to make space for the more skillful players to play through.
