Crystal Palace joining Celtic in race for Gvidas Gineitis transfer

Celtic may encounter new competition for player Gvidas Gineitis as Crystal Palace reportedly prepares to enter the bidding for the Torino midfielder. The 22-year-old has become a primary target for Celtic after the recent transfer of Arne Engels to West Ham United. Torino's asking price for Gineitis is believed to be between £8 million and £12 million, with Red Bull Salzburg and Anderlecht also expressing interest. With Celtic's Champions League play-off against LASK Linz approaching, the need for swift action is essential to secure Gineitis’s availability.
