Celtic's Landon Emenalo transfer faces late competition after medical

Celtic's pursuit of Chelsea defender Landon Emenalo faces uncertainty despite the player undergoing a medical at Lennoxtown. The 18-year-old had been expected to join on a season-long loan as a replacement for Marcelo Saracchi, who has left the club. However, new rival offers have emerged for Emenalo, creating a wait-and-see scenario for manager Martin O’Neill. Celtic has been active in the transfer market, recently signing Haissem Hassan and Mika Baur, while also looking to offload players like Arne Engels and Reo Hatate. O’Neill aims to strengthen the squad further, including in goalkeeper and midfielder positions, as the transfer window nears its close.
