<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Blackburn may be too late in confirming their interest in Dutch striker star Maceo Rigters. The 23-year-old, who finished top scorer in the recent European Under-21 Championships, currently plays in the Dutch league for NAC Breda. Blackburn chairman John Williams told the Lancashire Telegraph: 'The Dutch lad is someone that [manager] Mark [Hughes] likes. I know that he admires him a lot.' However, Rigters' agent earlier revealed he is hoping to fly into Glasgow today to tie up a move to Celtic. Tom Smit told the Daily Record: 'I would hope to be in Glasgow on Monday and make a final agreement with Celtic. 'It is my hope that we can agree a deal soon. If I can't get into Scotland right away I'll be there on Tuesday.'</div> Rigters Rovers Celtic If the sentance highlighted in bold is correct then WOO FCUKING HOO!
I thought that he was already with Rovers. Oh well i dont care it would be a great signing for celtic.
I saw an article the other day about Blackburn completing the deal for Rigters? If this is true then it's better that he goes to Celtic, he's a good player and I'd rather see him in the SPL than playing for Blackburn against us
Why would he want to play in the SPL when he could play in the EPL, no offense to the Scottish but the English Premier is a higher level of football, theres only Celtic and maybe Rangers that can really match our standards.
