da esoccer bet: Loads of Celtic fans have been discussing their centre back woes, and a whopping 85 per cent are backing a swoop for Toulouse centre back Christopher Jullien.
da doce: According to GOAL.com writer Robin Bairner, Jullien could be available for as little as €10m (around £9m).
Bairner claims Newcastle, Southampton and Everton were all eyeing the giant defender before the Premier League window closes, and that he is likely to move on from the Ligue 1 outfit this summer.

Jullien, standing at 6 ft 5 in, was one of Ligue 1’s most impressive performers over the last couple of years, averaging nearly two tackles, two interceptions and over six clearances per game over the last two seasons.
He also has a knack of grabbing goals from set pieces, something with new Rangers manager Steven Gerrard has found with Connor Goldson and Nikola Katic.
The Hoops are in desperate need of a commanding centre back to play alongside Kristoffer Ajer and replace the struggling Jack Hendry, and while £9m is quite a lot of money, it would be well worth it for a player of Jullien’s quality.
