Celtic fullback Josip Juranovic’s future remains up in the air, with the Croatian international seemingly keen to leave the Scottish champions during the January transfer widow.
Although a number of high-profile teams, including Chelsea and Manchester United, have been mentioned as potential suitors, it appears no official bids have been made so far.
After Juranovic struggled in the Glasgow derby on Monday, fans on Twitter have been debating what the club should do with the defender, with many favouring a sale for a sizeable fee:
100% sell if the price is right, think his head may have been turned already.

He's a top right back.
We all want that perfect transfer model, selling Jura for big money is exactly that after bringing him in for a bargain fee.— Odsonne Jedward (@iHorror) January 6, 2023
Need to get rid pronto

Clearly wants a move, if the fee is right let him go. Been a top player for us 🍀

Get as much as we can for him and move on.

Fed up reading and listening to speculation. Both he and Celtic should end this sideshow ASAP.

While Juranovic’s performance against Brazil at the World Cup garnered plenty of headlines, it doesn’t seem like clubs are queueing up to sign the right-back currently.
Celtic are believed to be prepared to sell the 27-year-old if a good enough offer is made, but their reported £17m valuation may be putting off some teams. Even so, with the player having a contract until 2026, the club are well within their rights to hold out for a decent sum. It remains to be seen, though, whether any team will make their move before the end of the month.
