Report: Fraser Foster has decided to fight for his Southampton place and not return Celtic on loan

According to The Scottish Sun, Celtic’s move for Southampton goalkeeper Fraser Foster could fall through as he has decided to fight for his place at St. Mary’s and not return to Parkhead on loan. The Scottish Premiership giants had agreed a season-long loan deal with the Saints with an option to buy, but Foster only wants a permanent deal, and that is likely to cost Celtic £5 million in transfer fees. His £90,000-a-week salary is also an issue, and the Hoops are already moving on to other targets as they look to have a contingency plan in place should the move fail.
