Dieter's Heeder Posted August 22, 2019 Report Share Posted August 22, 2019 Celtic move for Greg Taylor as Kilmarnock put £3million price tag on left-back The champions have launched their attempt to land the Scotland cap who is keen on the move. Celtic have launched their attempt to sign Kilmarnock star Greg Taylor. It’s understood the eight in a row winners got in touch with the Rugby Park club on Thursday to ask how much they wanted for their left-back. And it’s believed Celtic were told £3million. The Hoops are still interested in the Scotland cap but do not want to go as high as the figure quoted. Celtic have not tabled a bid but there is expected to be an offer made over the next 48 hours. Killie chairman Billy Bowie is aware Taylor is keen on the move. Talks between the clubs and the player’s representatives are due to continue to see if an agreement can be thrashed out. Celtic are likely to go to around £1million as well as including the offer of players on loan. Kilmarnock are keen on Jack Hendry and he could be included to try to smooth over any deal. Celtic are looking to get the transfer sealed so Taylor is for next week’s derby with Rangers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kfc_superteam Posted August 22, 2019 Report Share Posted August 22, 2019 1 million plus players on loan. No chance. 3 million or 2 million plus Lewis Morgan or 1.5 plus hendry and Morgan. On permanent deals. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steviee Posted August 23, 2019 Report Share Posted August 23, 2019 £1m???? F.O!!! You want him, you know the price. Hope Bowie plays hard ball like Celtic did with Tierney & Arsenal. Taylor is worth £3m all day long. In two three years they’ll be selling him for £20m no doubt. I wouldn’t be taking players on loan either. That’s only looks good on us for however long the loan deal is. PERMANENT DEAL ONLY PLEASE!!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thesnowman21 Posted August 23, 2019 Report Share Posted August 23, 2019 £3m and Hendry on loan, or £2.5m and Hendry on permanent deal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

red_dug Posted August 23, 2019 Report Share Posted August 23, 2019 Those idiots on radio Clyde were touting him last night but "obviously he wouldn't be celtics first choice." Will be raging if we sell after letting Waters go on loan. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killiepies Posted August 23, 2019 Report Share Posted August 23, 2019 Doubt if any players will come here as make weight for Taylor .They will sit there contract out or hope for a move to an English club who will pay similar money 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KTIDanny85 Posted August 23, 2019 Report Share Posted August 23, 2019 Celtic always do this. Low ball teams around them but are stubborn and want paid top dollar for their own players. No brainer in terms of a business model but it is insulting and infuriating. Who is a striker or attacking player we could get on loan from them? If we can't get a decent payday and loan player, I would hold out for all the money and use it to buy in one or two players. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitch14 Posted August 23, 2019 Report Share Posted August 23, 2019 Right asking price being set. I don't really get why getting a player on loan would add to the value to any extent? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killiefaetheferry Posted August 23, 2019 Report Share Posted August 23, 2019 Celtic remain interested but not at that price? Aye, I remain interested in Salah and Kane but not at those prices thanks. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spot on take the cash not that interested in their rejects... besides their wages are too high so they will never come to us permanently and we are back to rebuilding at the end of the season after the loans go back to their own clubs. Look what happened this year when Bachmann et al left we have a threadbare squad which is crippling us.

Scouser2 Posted August 23, 2019 Report Share Posted August 23, 2019 Still have my doubts that there is genuine interest other than Taylor being one of a number of options they been looking at ..... but hopefully the Board will stick to the value they have for our player , there seems no rush to sell for first offer we get or to seek any transfer fee to make the balance sheet look better....like under a previous Chairman .....so hopefully will not see a cut price fee agreed after a few days of the usual media "pressure" to sell IF there is a definite bid 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guff92 Posted August 23, 2019 Report Share Posted August 23, 2019 Should be £3million plus loan. Giving us a fringe player on loan doesn’t knock 2 million off Taylor’s value or asking price. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killie71 Posted August 23, 2019 Report Share Posted August 23, 2019 Celtic have already spent £3 million on a LB, who by all accounts isn't very good. They received £25 million for Tierney. £5 million ofo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

piffer Posted August 23, 2019 Report Share Posted August 23, 2019 Stick to our guns and break our transfer record. We hold the aces here. They are desperate for a LB as Boli doesn’t look up to task. We have one and with the Hamalainen signing we don’t need to do a quick deal to give us time to find a replacement. In terms of taking a player or two I’d want Hayes and/or Hendry. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kfc_superteam Posted August 23, 2019 Report Share Posted August 23, 2019 Yeah they will start off low with their 1 million plus a Jack Hendry on loan(who can be recalled and can't play against them). If we want him they need to spend the cash. Hope Bowie is strong with them and no entertain a low bid. The bare face cheek if Celtic offer a derisory bid after all their haggling over Kieran Tierney. I think Taylor wants the move and isn't the type to force a move but if he were to kick up I would drop him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shortie Posted August 23, 2019 Report Share Posted August 23, 2019 GT is one of the finest young players to come out of Kilmarnock in years - hope BB sticks to the £3mill and tells the Lego munchers were not moving from that 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
