Celtic may move a step closer to offloading Boli Bolingoli in the coming days, with Tuttomercatoweb suggesting that talks with Roma are expected imminently.

It would be a surprise if Bolingoli played for the Hoops again. Sky Sports reported last month that the Scottish Premiership champions are looking to sell the left-back after he broke quarantine regulations.

Unfortunately, it may not be an easy task for the Bhoys to attract a suitable bid. As noted by the Daily Record, Celtic spent £3 million on him last summer.

But it would appear that a resolution may actually not be too far away.

Tuttomercatoweb reports that talks between the Hoops and Roma over Bolingoli will take place in the coming days.

The Serie A side have sold Aleksandar Kolarov to Inter Milan, and it appears that the Belgian could ultimately become his replacement.

It remains to be seen whether Bolingoli plays again for the Hoops. Should he stay beyond the deadline, it may become more likely with Neil Lennon’s men battling on numerous fronts this season.

Nevertheless, their preference will surely be to secure a decent fee and move him on. So they will certainly go into talks with Roma hoping to reach an agreement.

It looks to be best for all parties for a move to be finalised. And it is difficult to see Bolingoli snubbing the chance to join one of Italy’s biggest clubs this summer.
