Celtic look set to miss out on top target Vinicius Souza with the Brazilian midfielder reportedly on the verge of joining PSV Eindhoven.
Record Sport revealed this morning that Ange Postecoglou wasn’t willing to wait around after a lengthy pursuit of the 23-year-old and they now look set to be forced to look elsewhere for the physical midfielder the champions are looking for to bolster their engine room.
A report in the Scottish Express says Souza’s preference of a move to the Dutch Eredivisie will lead him to the Philips Stadium. Souza is 60 per cent owned by The City Group, who Celtic chiefs enjoy a close relationship with, but he is currently with Lommel and Genk and Club Brugge were keen to keep him in Belgium. Real Betis, Schalke, Fenerbahce and Ajax were all linked but it’s PSV who appear to have won the race to land the former Flamengo man.
