''Of course I can see myself at Celtic next year. You can always see yourself at a club like this. Its an amazing football club. If its the right thing I dont think money has anything to do with it. As long as you can put food on the table and support your family. Of course this is my job and you want to be financially stable but you are going to be at a club like this. - John Guidetti, November 2014.
John Guidettis career at Manchester City looks to be finally dead. It seems crazy that he has been at the club longer than Sheikh Mansour, and yet has failed to register a single appearance for the Citizens. Having been snapped up in April 2008 as a 16 year old, the Swedish international is into his fifth loan spell away from the club. Having bagged five league goals for Celtic thus far this season, there has been increased speculation that boss Ronny Deila will seek to make the move permanent in a £5 million swoop. Having been named Scottish player of the month for October, it looks like the 22 year old has found his level, and Pellegrini will be keen to accept any incoming funds for a player he has absolutely no intention of ever using. The former Malaga boss is the fourth manager that has decided that Guidetti isnt good enough for the first-team at City - surely, they cant all be wrong? Signed in the months before the Abu Dhabi takeover, one would have to assume that it was simply a case of right club at the wrong time for Guidetti. So that's a wrap - do you agree?
