Celtic fans have taken to Twitter to give their reaction to speculation linking the club with a move for Sunderland forward Josh Maja.

According to The Chronicle, Scottish Premiership giants Celtic are interested in signing Maja.

The forward has decided not to sign a new contract, as reported in The Chronicle, with the 20-year-old’s current deal running out at the end of the season.

Celtic fans have taken to Twitter to give their reaction to speculation on Maja, and below are some of the best comments:

Good signing for Celtic

Maja is a very good and promising young forward who has been a success in League One.

According to WhoScored, the 20-year-old has made 22 starts and two substitute appearances in League One for Sunderland so far this season, scoring 14 goals in the process.

While Sunderland may not sell Maja in the January transfer window as he is their best forward and they are aiming to automatic promotion to the Championship, perhaps the Hoops should try to sign a pre-contract agreement with the youngster so that he joins them in the summer of 2019.
