Celtic have finally secured the signing of David Turnbull, a year after his move to Parkhead was called off.

I will always be a fan of this guy. I can’t wait to watch him running to show in the EPL and for Scotland. I believe he’ll go to the very top of the game. Celtic have got themselves an absolute superstar in the making. I hope we snuck a Hefty sell on clause in that contract SIWY
