I think John McGinn will eventually end up at Celtic Park, although that may be in January or even next summer.

He will be a good acquisition, but midfield isn’t really the top priority at the moment.

Because of that, I think that Celtic’s approach has been the right one. It doesn’t seem as if there is too much other interest out there, and I think the boy himself wants to go to Celtic.

Both sides are entitled to do what is right for them in the negotiations, but I think that Celtic can afford to bide their time and get the player on their own terms. If it isn’t this summer, then the only party that will really lose out is Hibs financially.
