The deal is done: Joel Mvuka is now a Celtic player after completing a switch from Lorient. The midfielder signs after the two clubs reached an agreement and the player completed a medical. The player is set to meet his new teammates and embark on a new chapter in his career. No other teams were seriously connected with the player, leaving Celtic free to complete the transfer at their own pace. So far this season, Celtic are steady at both ends (1.79 goals scored per game, 0.96 goals conceded per game). The role for Joel Mvuka would be to keep that balance while lifting performances across the pitch. Reports suggest Celtic are monitoring Benjamin Arthur, Kasper Hogh and Adam Montgomery whereas Lorient have not been associated with other players at this stage.
