Naka Looking To January Sales Exit?

Last updated : 14 September 2008 By Clydebuilt
Quotes have appeared this morning on the newsnow site that appear to hint that Celtic's Japanese Genius Shunsuke Nakamura would like to return to Japan before the end of the season.

These quotes however appear on sites that very rarely run stories of foundation and are usually taken with a pinch of salt. The very fact that the quotes to emanate via the Italian Tommaso Angelini also question the validity of the claims.

Regular readers of the newsnow site will remember that this Agent claimed previously that Nakamura had a get-out clause in his contract, only for the story to come to nothing.

Here is what Naka has allegedly said: "A move in January might be possible. My agent will take care of everything with regards to that happening.

"If I was Scottish I'd love to play at Celtic forever but I'm not. I'm Japanese and have a family to consider.

"I need to think about the national team as well and I'm finding it hard travelling.

"I'd love to play at Celtic Park forever but when I take everything into consideration I might need to go back to Japan.

"My agent has already spoken to a few teams in Japan. Lawwell hasn't said he doesn't need me yet so I honestly don't know what will happen."

I smell Rafael!

Yours in Celtic
