FC Utrecht goalkeeper coach Harald Wapenaar believes that a return to Celtic will be on the cards for Vasilis Barkas - as he's too expensive for their club.
The Dutch club signed the Greek international on a season-long loan deal in the summer transfer window and he has impressed at Eredivisie level. After joining the Hoops under Neil Lennon in 2020, Barkas found things difficult and a lack of Celtic form saw him play just two times last season in Ange Postecoglou's first season.
Wapenaar would love to see the Hoops loanee stick around beyond the end of the season but admits that it won't be possible due to his transfer fee, meaning the year-old could be heading back to Glasgow next summer. Barkas' deal in the east-end expires in 2024, and Wapenaar told RTV Utrecht: "That is a utopia. He has made a transfer for about eight million from AEK to Celtic.
