Celtic will reportedly miss out on Real Madrid winger Takefusa Kubo

Celtic are reportedly set to miss out on Real Madrid winger Takefusa Kubo to Villarreal.

Interest from Celtic

According to a report in Spanish publication AS in June, Celtic are among the clubs who are interested in signing the winger from Spanish and European giants Madrid in the summer transfer window.

The report claimed that the Glasgow giants want to secure the services of Kubo on a season-long loan deal.

Hugely talented

Described by Barcelona legend Andres Iniesta as “a player with immense talent and a great future” in AS in July 2019, the Japan international would be a very good short-term signing for the Hoops and would add goals and creativity to manger Neil Lennon’s side.
