Bellamy to Celtic maybe


Looks like Craig Bellamy could be crossing the border again, but not the Welsh/English, but the Scottish/English border too Celtic.

The rumour today is that Manchester City are open to talks with Celtic over a deal with the blessing of City boss Roberto Mancini. It looks like they are talking about a season long loan deal with Celtic paying a size able percentage of his £90,000-a-week wages.

Mancini is eager by all accounts to see Bellamy go north of the border then to a Premier league club where there is a chance he could back and haunt him. Bellamy would then be a free agent at the end of next season, but I think is days of such high wages would have gone then.

Any hope of him coming back to Cardiff where he spent last season on loan look dead in the water. The only hope for his return to the Cardiff City Stadium would be if Manchester City bosses paid up the final year of his contract and let him go. Mancini said,

"It is possible there have been conversations about Craig Bellamy between us and Celtic.

"I met Craig two days ago at Carrington. He told me something I want to keep to myself. What I said two days ago was that if Celtic want Craig, he is a good player, and I think he can go."
