Dumbarton manager Stephen Aitken is closing on an ambitious loan signing with Celtic’s highly though of striker Jack Aitchison set to join the Sons until January.
The 18 year old boasts the honour of being Celtic’s youngest ever player and goalscorer.; the teenager scored for the club when he was just 16 years and 71 days in a 7-0 win over Motherwell back in May 2016 in what was Ronny Deila’s final game in charge of Celtic. The young striker is set to get game time at the League 1 side after a deal was agreed between the clubs and the player.
Aitken said: “It is not over the line yet however the signs are good that Jack will join us. Everything is in place for what would be a terrific signing for Dumbarton and hopefully we can get it over the line.”
