Exclusive: EFE AMBROSE Confirms Celtic Interest, Faces Work Permit Problems
As first reported by the United Kingdom edition of the Daily Mail a month ago, Scotland's heavyweights Celtic are tracking the Nigeria international center-back Efe Ambrose.<br /><br />The 23-year-old MS Ashdod utility player who tested with Manchester City in February has confirmed to <b>allnigeriasoccer.com</b> the interest from the Glasgow club.<br /><br />''I can confirm my agent, Dudu Dahan is negotiating with Celtic and I hope all works out well. For now all I can say is that I am praying about this dream move and I believe God's will will be done,'' Ambrose, who is expected to be named in the Super Eagles squad to face Liberia in September, told <b>allnigeriasoccer.com</b>.<br /><br />What could be a bottle - neck in Ambrose's proposed move to Glasgow Celtic is work permit issues. As things stand, the one - time Kaduna United man has played only 70 percent of Nigeria's National Team matches in the last two years. <br /><br />Put it in this way, Celtic must convince the authorities that Ambrose is a talented youngster and his arrival at Parkhead will be invaluable to the Premier League.<br /><br />Transfer market experts value Ambrose at a modest 400,000 euros. He is under contract with MS Ashdod until June 2013, with an option for an additional two seasons written into the deal.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br />
