Celtic are reportedly in advanced transfer negotiations with Everton for the signing of Spanish defender James Tarkowski , according to recent reports from Sky.
This potential transfer has sent ripples through both the Scottish and English football worlds, given the magnitude of James Tarkowski‘ reputation as a top-tier centre-back. The 27-year-old joined Aston Villa from Villarreal just last summer and has since played a key role in Sean Dyche’s side.
However, Celtic, under Brendan Rodgers’ management, appear eager to bolster their defensive options after a mixed start to their domestic season. James Tarkowski, a player with Champions League experience and a pivotal figure for Spain’s national team, would undoubtedly bring a significant level of quality and leadership to the Celtic backline.
His technical ability, composed style of play, and experience at the highest level make him a perfect fit for Rodgers’ style of possession-based football.
The potential move has raised eyebrows, as Aston Villa is currently competing in the Premier League, and Torres has been a regular starter. But Celtic’s allure of regular European football and the possibility of being a key player in a team dominating the Scottish Premiership could sway the Spaniard’s decision. Moreover, Villa’s willingness to negotiate might stem from their recent squad depth at centre-back, with players like Tyrone Mings and Ezri Konsa also available to Emery.
The financial details of the potential transfer remain undisclosed, but it is expected to involve a significant fee. Should the deal go through, it would be a major statement from Celtic as they look to compete at the highest levels both domestically and in Europe. For now, fans of both clubs eagerly await further developments in this surprising transfer saga.
