Celtic agree loan deal for Manchester City's Patrick Roberts

Celtic have reportedly agreed terms on an 18-month loan deal for Manchester City striker Patrick Roberts.

The Scottish Premiership leaders will take the 18-year-old attacker until the end of next season after he completed a medical in Glasgow this weekend.

Roberts joined City over the summer in a reported £12m deal from Championship side Fulham and has since made just three appearances for the Citizens, all of them as a substitute.

Celtic have made one signing so far during the winter transfer window, bringing in Danish centre-back Erik Sviatchenko on a four-and-a-half year deal from FC Midtjylland.
