According to a report released by French sportspaper L’Equipe, Celtic have reached an agreement with Ligue 1 side Nancy to complete the transfers of Marc-Antoine Fortune and Landry N’Guemo from the Lorraine side.
A combined figure of €7 million, which includes bonuses, is quoted by the Parisian-based publication for the ASNL pair.
The Scottish Premier League side have been in the market for Fortune since manager Tony Mowbray made the move north to his former side West Bromwich Albion, for whom the French forward had enjoyed a successful six-month loan spell towards the end of last season.
N’Guemo, a Cameroon international, is a combative 23-year-old midfielder, whose best attributes tend to be focused towards the defensive side of the game. Indeed, he only has two career goals in nearly 100 Ligue 1 appearances for his present employers.
Having enjoyed increased playing time at the Stade Marcel-Pichot over the last season, N’Guemo had attracted the interest of lower-end Premier League clubs in the winter but will have the chance to experience Champions League football if he and Fortune can agree terms with the Glasgow side.
Mowbray’s men start their European campaign in the third qualifying round of the European Cup, which they will have to negotiate along with a playoff round, if they are to reach the group stages of the Champions League. Progress in the transfer market has been slow for the Hoops, for whom this double capture would provide something of a boost.
