Celtic have shown considerable interest in Newcastle Uniteds keeper Steve Harper but this week the club have announced they would be interested in taking both Michael Bridges and Steve Harper to Celtic park next season.

Steve Harper who is asking for a move to gain regular first team football has been offered a loan season by the Newcastle management and is expected to fully accept this deal.

Michael Bridges having only been at St James’ Park for a season has been told that he will not be offered a permanent deal by the magpies after an uneventful season. Fulham have also shown an interest in the striker.
