Celtic line up a young player for a January move

Celtic are hoping to tie up a deal with Icelandic club Fram for striker Holmbert Aron Fridjonsson who has represented Iceland at Under-21 level, scored 12 goals in 23 appearances so far this season. Fridjonsson was over at Lennoxtown earlier this month when he had a successful trial. It is said that Celtic are willing to part with £120,000 for his signature. The Icelandic club have yet to agree any move, but remain confident a switch in January will be rubber stamped soon.Fram chairman Sverrir Einarsson said: "We have received an offer. We responded to Celtic last night and we are waiting to hear again from them. They are not far away (in terms of the transfer fee). I think we are hoping it will happen. It would good for him, Celtic would be a very good club for him. He was satisfied himself with the club and he was very happy to be there (when on trial). He has potential. He is a special type of player. He is a very good guy and he has his family behind him. I would be disappointed if he didn't go all the way in the game. I believe that he will."
