Gustaf Lagerbielke Set for Celtic Exit; Dutch Side Leading the Race
Celtic defender Gustaf Lagerbielke looks set to leave the club on loan this summer amid interest from a few European sides.
According to a report from fussballtransfers.com, Eredivisie team Heerenveen want to bring the centre-back to the Netherlands and is leading Belgian outfit KV Mechelen in the race for his signature.

It is said that Lagerbielke will complete a move before next Friday’s transfer deadline after talks were held in Glasgow yesterday.
Signed for around £3m (Transfermarkt) from Elfsborg last summer, the 24-year-old never got going at Parkhead.
Injury didn’t help him, but Brendan Rodgers never seemed to rate Lagerbielke despite his last-minute winner against Feyenoord in the Champions League.
Celtic fans will be hoping the Swede’s exit paves the way for a new arrival at the heart of defence.
Liam Scales has been reliable over the past year for his side, but many think an upgrade on the Irishman is due.
Let’s see what the next 10 days hold regarding incomings.
