Francesco Guidolin says it's like a Final against Celtic, but won’t confirm whether Antonio Di Natale will start for Udinese in the Europa League crunch match.

Gian Piero Gasperini was impressed with Inter's 2-0 victory over Celtic and prepares to face Manchester City this afternoon.

“It was a shame we went down to 10 men before the break, especially as it changed the tone of the match,” he said of Thiago Motta's double booking.

Torino striker Rolando Bianchi could be heading for Scotland after Celtic reportedly prepared a bid.

According to Datasport, the Glasgow club made contact with Torino on Friday night to enquire after the player.

Despite Thiago Motta's first half red card, Inter beat Celtic 2-0 with Luc Castaignos and Giampaolo Pazzini in the Dublin Super Cup.

Two clubs are chasing Juventus reserve goalkeeper Alexander Manninger, according to his agent.

"Sampdoria are an option, while there is also the possibility that he could join Celtic," stated Franco Granello.

Napoli's planned friendly with Celtic at the Stadio San Paolo has been scrapped, but it's rumoured they'll face Barcelona instead.

The club had announced a celebratory match in August with Scottish giants Celtic, but that has now been taken off the calendar.

Celtic were beaten to Norwegian striker Erik Huseklepp in January, but are staging another swoop for the Bari talent.

Norway international Huseklepp surprised many by choosing Bari in the mid-season transfer window when he left SK Brann.

Celtic had been interested then and their focus only increased after a splendid six months in the Bari jersey, even though they were relegated.

Napoli have announced a summer friendly at the Stadio San Paolo against Celtic, plus “two big competitions overseas.”

The Partenopei are qualified for the Champions League group phase and aim to start testing themselves against top opposition in August.

Unsettled Catania striker Gianvito Plasmati is currently on trial with Celtic, confirmed his agent.

“We are in talks with Celtic. Gianvito is there now on a week's trial and the possibility of playing in Scotland would be very enticing for him,” Antonio Rebesco told TuttoMercatoWeb.

“I would rule out rumours linking him to Taranto, precisely because we are negotiating with Celtic and hope the Scottish option becomes something concrete.”
