According to Italian journalist Nicolo Schira, Glasgow Celtic has reportedly initiated another bid for a 22-year-old Lithuanian player. The journalist noted that the Scottish club expressed interest in the player early in July, but negotiations between the two involved parties have yet to reach a conclusion. Schira reported that the player, G.
Gineičio, who currently plays for Torino, is reportedly reluctant to negotiate a quick sale, setting an asking price of €14-15 million for the transfer. Gineičio is being viewed as a potential replacement for Arne Engels, who is reportedly nearing an agreement with West Ham United. Gineičio has been with the Mažeikiai “Torino” team since January 2023.
His recent statistics in Serie A show that the defender has made 76 appearances, recording 3 goals and 2 assists for the club. The sustained interest from Celtic suggests a continued effort to secure the defender’s services. The ongoing transfer saga highlights the high value placed on the Lithuanian player within the transfer market, according to the journalist.
While the Celtic pursuit remains active, the finalization of the move hinges on the resolution of the financial terms demanded by Gineičio’s current employers.
