Misun to pen Celtic deal - agent

[ian1964 10,415]

Czech left-back Milan Misun is set to sign for Celtic on Thursday, according to the player's agent Ondrej Chovanec.

 

The 18-year-old, presently with FK Pribram, trained with the Scottish Premier League leaders last week.

 

"We are delighted as we have managed to get Milan to one of the biggest clubs in Europe," said Chovanec.

 

"There was also huge interest from AC Milan, but Celtic acted quickly and my player should be in Glasgow on Thursday to pen a professional deal."

 

And Czech Republic under-20 international Misun says he is delighted at the prospect of joining Gordon Strachan's team.

 

"It is the best gift I could have got for Christmas," he said.

 

We have not received any feedback from Celtic yet

"When I was at Celtic on trial for a couple of days, they treated me really well and I believe I can improve as a player there."

 

Celtic have deployed Lee Naylor and Mark Wilson in the left-back position this season, but Wilson is a naturally right-footed defender.

 

Misun was joined at Celtic's Lennoxtown training centre by FK Pribram team-mate Anton Fantis, but Celtic have put a possible move for the 16-year-old on hold.

 

Meanwhile, Brann Bergen defender Erlend Hanstveit, who was also on trial with Celtic, has returned to Norway early for his wedding.

 

Hanstveit's father and agent, Per Bjarte, was last night still in the dark over a possible move.

 

"We have not received any feedback from Celtic yet. We were concentrating on his wedding, but we expect an answer soon," said Bjarte.
