jim_beam 2 Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 Skysports.com understands that Celtic have won the race to sign Middlesbrough starlet Ben Hutchinson. The 20-year-old striker has penned a pre-contract with the Scottish champions, in a deal which will shock and disappoint Boro. Hutchinson made the breakthrough into Boro's first team this season and scored on his Premier League debut at Manchester City. He has since made a further seven substitute appearances in the league and started in the FA Cup third round victory at Bristol City. Hutchinson joined Boro's highly acclaimed youth academy in 2006 when he was signed from Arnold Town and he has been tipped to make a big impact at The Riverside. Compensation However, Boro have failed to agree fresh terms with Hutchinson and Celtic have pulled of a major coup in landing his signature. A host of Premier League sides had also shown an interest, but Boro were confident of keeping the player - but now Celtic have swooped. Boro will be due compensation for Hutchinson, but it is only likely to be a minimal compared to his market value. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cloud 3 Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 Weird, a couple of my mates are Boro fans and they don't get what the fuss is about, apparently he's nothing special. Guess we'll have to wait and see. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stardog 11 Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 Middlesbrough fans say he'd only go for about £200k and was only in the first team because they were short on players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ricksen_da_best 2,034 Posted January 26, 2008 Author Share Posted January 26, 2008 lot of mates who follow the english leagues are saying hes like DJ Campbell..that signed for birmingham after one good game the FA cup that tis guy did well in the Fa youth cup and hes quickly signed up by middlesborough and he scored on his debut but apart from that done nothing. Premiership value would see him move for about £500k they thin..aint worth it tho! and the guy that said that supports celtic Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark_ni 12 Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 major coup MY ARSE. Just typical from celtic, its like when they signed donati all over the papers it was "celtic sign MILAN STAR" when he had barely kicked a ball for them. Not worried in the slightest about this one.

kirkiebear 1,013 Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 Lol Boro reserves. Boro fans dont understand the hype about the deal lol. Why do the media always bum up celtics new signings. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muff 245 Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 Gave Micah Richards a hard time when he came on and scored on his debut. A signing that doesn't bother me in the slightest. Strapon will ruin him and he'll probably spend the majority of time on the bench. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 all these starlet signings, 99% of them are bollocks and dont make it, especially if they sign for the mhanks Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bazza 21 Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 The next superstar Heard it all before. I really hope Strapon gets several millions to spend as it will be like pouring money down the feckin drain. His sigings and what he makes of them are abysmal.
