Joe Ledley has held further talks with Celtic as the Wales international moved closer to joining the Glasgow club. The 23-year-old, whos is out of contract at Cardiff, and agent David Baldwin visited Celtic Park for discussions with club officials on their latest visit to Scotland. The midfielder looks set to commit to Celtic on a long-term contract after being offered a reported £25,000 weekly wage. Npower Championship club Cardiff would expect several million pounds of compensation should Ledley move to an English team but FIFA's transfer age limit is a year less for cross-border rules, meaning Celtic would acquire the player for free. A host of Barclays Premier League clubs have been linked with interest in Ledley including Stoke, Liverpool, West Brom and Blackburn.
