Celtic out of luck in bid for Anco Jansen
CELTIC failed in a bid for De Graafschap playmaker Anco Jansen before Saturday’s transfer deadline.
It’s understood the Hoops tried to sign the 24-year-old on loan until January, with a view to buying him if he made an impact.
Jansen’s representative, Alan Love, said: “Celtic wanted Anco Jansen for half a year for a rental fee of 120,000 euros, and they wanted an option to buy.”
The Dutch Second Division side wanted more money plus £65,000 if Celtic failed to take up their option to buy. Jansen has since failed to attend training.
