Celtic reportedly interested in out-of-favour Newcastle winger Christian Atsu

Published on: 17 September 2020

Scottish champions Celtic are said to be interested in Christian Atsu and considering the option of signing him this summer.

The Ghana international has been told to ‘find a new home’ by Newcastle United manager Steve Bruce.

The English trainer stated that Atsu is not part of his plans hence will not get regular playing time this season if he stays.

And a few days after Bruce made the claim, there are reports in England that Atsu could find a new home before the transfer deadline.

Celtic are the club interested in acquiring the services of the talented attacker.

Atsu moved to Newcastle on a permanent deal from Chelsea in 2017. The previous season, he had played an influential role in their promotion to the Premier League.

However, lack of consistency in the last two seasons has seen him became a bit-part player for the Magpies.

Last season, he started six out of 19 games last season. He provided just three assists and failed to score a goal.
