Christopher Jullien has returned to Glasgow after failing to come to an agreement over personal terms with Schalke following medical checks, according to a report.
The Frenchman signed for the Hoops in 2019 from French side Toulouse and enjoyed a fine first season at Parkhead, netting the winner in the League Cup final against Rangers and eventually claiming title glory when the 2019/20 term was curtailed due to Covid. His second term was far from ideal though as the Hoops collapsed under Neil Lennon and he injured himself 18 months ago against Dundee United.
He obnoxiously collided with the post in a match with the Tangerines at Celtic Park and has barely kicked a competitive ball in anger since that game, although Jullien has featured in youth team matches and returned for pre-season training at Lennoxtown earlier this week. It was reported across Wednesday and early Thursday morning though that a move to Germany was on the cards.
