Naka Going No-where and Deek to Germany?

News this morning is that POTY elect Shunsuke Nakamura (10) is happy to remain at Celtic and sees himself progressing as a footballer whilst at the Football Club.

Naka who was linked with a move to Spain since the moment he arrived on these shores almost two years ago said, "I'm very happy at Celtic," he said. "I have good players around me and, if I think I can go on improving, I would definitely stay.

"I've learned from the Champions League and I think we have a greater chance of going forward in that competition in the future.

"The fans also help the players to improve here."

And as we all know, for every player that is staying at the club, there are sure to be ones looking for a trip to pastures new. Derek Riordan is reportedly attracting interest from Bundesliga side Kaiserslautern.

Since this report has no quotes from either club or the players agent we at Mon the Hoops Towers feel that this is a non-story, although it was generated from the National Press and not the "Strachan and Riordan have fallen out Scottish Press"

Speaking of the Scottish Press, in a strange piece of cheap irony it would appear that every single player that we rate is being linked with a move to Aston Villa. Strange how years ago Martin gave the hacks column inches to create with tails of him taking every job in England. Now that he has taken a job in England they creating there articles linking every Celtic player with a trip to Birmingham with Boruc being the latest 'recruit'

Apparently you could make it up!

Yours in Celtic
