Hopeful Yang Hyun-jun insists that his dream move to European football with Celtic is still alive despite the saga dragging on with the Gangwon winger.
The Scottish Premiership champions bid to bring the 21-year-old to Glasgow's east end has been met by flip-flopping from the K-League side - who initially pulled the plug on a deal as they didn't want to lose the forward until the winter window with the club fighting relegation. That led to a furious response from the player and the position of Gangwon appeared to have softened with the club stating they would allow the player to leave if their valuation was met.
Record Sport understand a £2.1million deal is being floated but there has been silence from all parties over a deal - and with Brendan Rodgers well underway in his pre-season plans a move to Celtic Park could be fading for Yang this summer. In an interview with Korean outlet SpoTV the attacker attempted to explain the delay - admitting the a final fee had still to be reached between the two sides.
