These fans react to Ibe’s rumoured move to Celtic
Jordon Ibe looks set to seal a loan move to Celtic this summer, as Neil Lennon aims to bolster his squad further.
The winger has fallen out of favour at Bournemouth, making just 17 appearances in the Premier League last season.
Ibe remains an exciting prospect, though, with his pace and power both attributes that could be a real handful in the Scottish Premiership.
Both Celtic and non-Hoops supporters have been discussing the news of the 23-year-old’s potential move on Twitter – here’s a look at some of the best reaction.

Shows the level of Scottish Football when the champions are trying to sign a winger who can't get in the Bournemouth side.

This man’s been handed every opportunity to develop and succeed on a silver platter if he flops again he should just retire

Read Celtic Verdict
There’s no denying that Ibe’s career hasn’t progressed in the manner many predicted a few years ago.
He burst onto the scene as a teenager at Liverpool and was tipped to enjoy similar success to Raheem Sterling, if not more.
A lack of substance to his game has been on show ever since, however, and he is at a point in his career where he must kick on.
Is Jordon Ibe a good signing for Celtic?
Yes
No
Should he join Celtic, this will be a huge opportunity for Ibe to showcase his talent, helping the Hoops reach new heights.
He can’t afford another failed spell at a club, though, so he would need to hit the ground running at Parkhead.
