Former Celtic misfit Shane Duffy bags English Premier League transfer

Shane Duffy struggled at Celtic during the 2020-21 season

FORMER Celtic loanee Shane Duffy has completed a move to another English Premier League club.

The centre-back has joined up with newly-promoted Fulham on a season-long loan deal from Brighton and Hove Albion.

Hoops fan Duffy had a tough loan spell at Parkhead during the 2020-21 season, which led to the club opting not to turn it into a permanent move come the end of that season.

However, despite his poor form in Glasgow, he did go on to make 20 appearances for the Seagulls in all competitions in the last campaign. 

Now the Republic of Ireland international has joined up at Craven Cottage as Fulham look to shore up their defence.

The 30-year-old told Fulham's official website: “I’m delighted. It’s a really exciting challenge for me and the Club, one I’m really looking forward to.”
