Celtic target would love to join

Celtic target Landry N'Guemo says he would love to move to Parkhead as he closes in on a season-long loan deal.

Tony Mowbray is in pole position to sign N'Guemo's Nancy team-mate Marc-Antoine Fortune, with a deal set to go through in the next few days for the striker.

The new Celtic boss will then turn his attentions to 23-year-old N'Guemo, who is expected to move to Parkhead on loan at first.

"I'm ready for a move. I've two years left on my contract, but I'm ready for a new challenge - and Nancy know that," he told the Evening Times.

"If Celtic want me, I would love to talk to them. They're one of the biggest clubs in European football and the prospect of going there excites me."
