Swindon chairman Andrew Fitton has revealed the club are in discussions to bring two unnamed Celtic players to the County Ground.[LNB] Town have strong links with the Scottish giants after signing Scott Cuthbert on a permanent transfer from the Bhoys last summer, while they also drafted in Ben Hutchison and Simon Ferry on loan.[LNB]It seems unlikely that Ferry will be able to be recruited again, but Fitton is optimistic a minimum of one other Hoops player will be at the club next season.[LNB]Fitton told the Swindon Advertiser: "I could quite confidently say you will see at least one or possibly two current Celtic players in our squad next season.[LNB]"You don't know if that will be loans or permanent transfers until you have further conversations, but we are talking."[LNB]He added: "Celtic have been so impressed with Simon Ferry's performances here that they want him back for pre-season training. It's because we've done a great job with him. We took him on when he had come back from a serious injury and gave him game time."
