Inbound Alexandro Bernabei' s journey from Buenos Aires to Glasgow has been the hot topic among Celtic fans as they track his arrival. But he has calmed any nerves over a deal in a fresh clue that his long-term future is committed to the club.
Record Sport understands the defender to have agreed a five-year contract with the Parkhead club. The Scottish Premiership champions agreed a £3.75million fee with Lanus, who have allowed Bernabei to make the long journey from South America in order to continue his career in Europe.
The Argentine now appears to have confirmed those details when a Lanus fan site offered an update on the deal ahead of Bernabei jetting off for his shot in the Scottish Premiership. The Fortaleza Granate group posted a clip of the player along with well wishes, and 21-year-old has liked and shared a farewell from the group on Instagram laying out the details of his move to Celtic Park this summer.
While no party has officially confirmed the transfer, it looks certain that he will be on his way to Scotland before Celtic start pre-season training early next week.
Eager fans have been tracking the full-back on social media in a bid to find out when he will land at Glasgow Airport. While he wasn't spotted by the punters a deal appears imminent.
The full-back will undergo a medical before signing for Celtic as Ange Postecoglou looks to add depth to the left-back position.
Liam Scales has left for Aberdeen on loan while Boli Bolingoli looks likely to leave the club this summer, leaving Greg Taylor as the only recognised full-back at Celtic Park.
