Aston Villa transfer complete & medical imminent after Newcastle United & Celtic talks
The Scottish champions have signed Finnish international Viljami Sinisalo from Aston Villa on a five-year deal. The club are also closing in on a deal for Denmark international Kasper Schmeichel who is a free agent after leaving Anderlecht.
Celtic have been searching for a replacement for Joe Hart following his retirement and have been linked with a number of goalkeepers so far this summer. Newcastle United’s Martin Dubravka was targeted by Celtic as a potential goalkeeping option.
The Slovakian has been away at Euro 2024 and is facing an uncertain future on Tyneside following the arrivals of Odysseas Vlachodimos and John Ruddy. But the arrival of Sinisalo and the imminent signing of Schmeichel all but end Celtic’s interest in the Newcastle goalkeeper.
