Celtic target Ismaila Soro sends cryptic transfer update as midfielder awaits signing green light

Celtic target Ismaila Soro has issued a cryptic social media update as he awaits the green light on his transfer to the Premiership champions.

The £2m-rated midfielder is expected to seal a move to Glasgow in the coming days but a reported development could delay his Bnei Yehuda exit.

His representatives are believed to own a percentage of the player and are negotiating the amount they will get from any potential transfer fee from Celtic .

And Soro, who plays as a defensive midfielder, has added to the intrigue over his future by sharing a social media update.

The 21-year-old posted on Instagram: "Always focused on the goal never let go and nothing will miss, god manages my time."

It comes after Soro played his potential last game in the Israeli Cup win over Hapoel Afula on Wednesday.

And Yehuda have remained non-committal over their key man featuring for them again.

In a statement, they said: "It's impossible to know at the moment whether Ismaila Soro will be in the squad for our next game against Hapoel Kfar Saba on Monday or not."

Neil Lennon has already secured Polish striker Patryk Klimala in a £3.5m deal and it's expected that Soro will become his second January arrival.

The Hoops return to action against Partick Thistle on Saturday as they continue their quest for a quadruple Treble with the Betfred Cup already in the trophy cabinet.
