Are you willing to trust a source who has over 75,000 followers on Facebook if he lets it be known Celtic may be about to sign a winger? Yup, me too. Come on, it\u2019s deadline day! <\/p>\n

So with that in mind, according to Tunisian journalist Mahdi Abid, \u0648\u0623\u062e\u064a\u0631\u0627 .. \u0647\u0627\u0645\u0627\u0631\u0628\u064a \u0627\u0644\u0633\u0648\u064a\u062f\u064a \u064a\u0631\u0636\u062e\u2026 \u2013
Mahdi Abid \u0645\u0647\u062f\u064a \u0639\u0628\u064a\u062f | Facebook \u2013 a modern-day Celtic hero as of today \u2013 Celtic look set to sign
Hammarby winger Sebastian Tounekti, and it looks likely he\u2019ll head to Glasgow this afternoon to complete a medical. <\/p>\n

Here\u2019s what Mahdi had to say, via a ropey translation of course \u2013 \u2018Swedish Hamarby takes matters to reality and agrees to Celtic offer. Tonkte will fly from Sweden to London this afternoon to undergo a medical with his new team. May God make it easy.<\/p>\n

Yes please. Recently addressing Celtic\u2019s transfer interest, the winger had more faith in Celtic than many of us when he said \u2013 as reported via Fotbollskanalen<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cI think the interest is still there, and I know they probably won\u2019t give up yet. That\u2019s what I\u2019ve heard. <\/p>\n

They\u2019re going to go all in. So we\u2019ll see what happens. I\u2019m very happy here, but it\u2019s great to see such interest. <\/p>\n

It\u2019s difficult to answer that right now. Things can happen quickly in football. The window closes tomorrow. <\/p>\n

I understand Hammarby. They want to win matches in the autumn and I\u2019ve been given a good role in the team. <\/p>\n

So, I understand Hammarby\u2019s side. But there\u2019s a lot of money involved and it will be exciting to see what happens.\u201d <\/p>\n

If this Tunisian Facebook account is genuine, and with only hours left of a transfer window in which Celtic still need at least one winger \u2013 ideally two \u2013 I\u2019m more than willing to go all in on this one being true, then Celtic may be about to sign a winger who already seems to have divided the support as to how good he may or may not be. <\/p>\n

However, The Cynic had a Celtic-supporting scout on one of their podcasts recently who has been covering Scandinavian football as his patch for \u2013 if I remember correctly \u2013 seven years, and he seemed very positive indeed that if Celtic got this deal done, they\u2019d be signing a right good prospect and one who could also hit the ground running. I\u2019ll take that kind of professional insight over my own trek through FBRef any day of the week. <\/p>\n

It\u2019s a rumour of a done deal, it\u2019s a player a Scandinavian scout has indicated is a good prospect, and he seems to be keen on Celtic, whilst at the same time having more faith in Celtic completing transfers than many of us do. <\/p>\n

What\u2019s not to like? This one just has to be a goer, does it not? <\/p>\n
