Celtic transfer pursuit of Gvidas Gineitis collapses

Celtic’s pursuit of Torino midfielder Gvidas Gineitis has collapsed after the club failed to reach an agreement with the Italian side. Despite the Lithuanian international being a primary target for a midfield rebuild, no personal terms were agreed upon with the player, and negotiations did not progress sufficiently to close the deal.

Reports indicate that Celtic manager Martin O’Neill expressed frustration regarding the timing of summer signings, suggesting that the lack of early recruitment impacted the club’s performance in Champions League qualifiers. While Celtic had previously made multiple offers for the 22-year-old, Torino maintained a strong position due to the player’s contract running until 2029.
