The Boot Room has started the transfer window off at a frantic pace with Celtic set to be decimated by the loss of players over the summer months.
There are still five matches to be played this season but transfer expert Graeme Bailey just can’t wait to get going as he sells off the guts of the Celtic squad.
Earlier this week Bailey named 10 clubs that are watching Daizen Maeda, Celtic 365 could name 100 clubs that are watching an international forward that scored four times in the Champions League including goals against Bayern Munich and RB Leipzig.
The pressure to hit targets is far more important to websites like TBR than obtaining any level of credibility, naming 10 clubs watching Maeda is a short cut to Search Engine Optimisation which is the goal of publishers that spew out daily transfer stories with no substance.
With 10 clubs on the Maeda chase it is natural to provide a follow up, TBR offered:
Leeds United are interested in Celtic stars Nicolas Kuhn and Cameron Carter-Vickers
TBR Football’s chief correspondent, Graeme Bailey, understands that Leeds United are showing interest in Celtic duo Nicolas Kuhn and Cameron Carter-Vickers.
The Whites are being connected with the Old Firm, given that their owners are investing in Rangers, but they are also taking a firm interest in Celtic.
The interest in Maeda has been revealed, but the Championship leaders are keen to sign two other players from Celtic Park as well.
TBR Football understands that Leeds United have watched the Scottish champions on a number of occasions since the turn of the year.

Celtic365 understands that Leeds United have every Celtic match watched and analysed, Celtic do the same with Leeds and all other championship clubs, it is called doing your job, recruitment, scouting. The basics of being a football club.
TBR have set off at a furious pace for the transfer window, even when there are actual football matches being played and real issues to cover.
Two EXCLUSIVE swoops in a week is quite a hit rate, this site will be following Bailey and his transfer tales throughout the window.
TBR seems keen to follow the path of the ludicrously named ‘Football Insider which secures EXCLUSIVE transfer news from 40 top UK clubs on a daily basis.
It seems that ‘recruitment sources’ and ‘senior club officials’ are constantly contacting FOOTBALL INSIDER to share the big breaking news with the online publisher.
Football Sustainability Rules seem to be overlooked at every turn as the scoops and swoops are piled up on a daily basis with everyone a winner except the reader that would consider returning to a site if it had some credibility behind the screaming headlines.
In truth Celtic will be involved in six or seven transfer moves during the summer, incoming and outgoing with the news likely to break from a foreign source or through Stephen McGowan who has been transferred to occasional stories in the Newsquest stable masterminded by Jonny McFarlane.
A few other former Celtic View reporters also pick up on stories now and then while Scott Burns of the Daily Record seems to have some genuine contacts inside the game that unearth stories covering a variety of clubs.
Meanwhile the clock is ticking on Bailey and TBR coming up with their next devastating Celtic transfer exclusive.
