Tony Mowbray’s sacking as Celtic coach means Diomansy Kamara will definitely return to Fulham in the summer, according to the Senegalese international”s former agent.
Fabrizio Ferrari, who represented the former West Brom forward when he sealed a £6m switch to Fulham in the summer of 2007, reckons that the reason Kamara was keen to head north of the border on loan was because of his success under Mowbray at the Hawthorns. With the former Celtic player paying the price for failing to keep pace with Rangers at the top of the SPL and a shock 4-0 defeat by lowly St. Mirren, Ferrari thinks Celtic have little chance of keeping Kamara on a permanent basis, even though such a condition was written into the loan deal.
Tony Mowbray was the reason Diomansy signed for Celtic. They worked well together at West Brom and he wanted to play for him again.
It’s very sad what happened with Tony and it will have a big impact on Diomansy’s future. He will be very disappointed.
I can’t see him staying at Celtic now. He will probably wait until the end of the season and then go back to Fulham.
Long-term, I don’t know what the future will be for Diomansy. He will speak to Fulham and make a decision, but I don’t expect him to be at Celtic next season.
Fulham can have him back now – a waste of space.
” Celtic shirts do not shrink to fit inferior players”
They need to change their kit supplier then, because things are only going to get worse.
oglach – don’t be so bitter. Kamara has done well for Celtic, but is injured long term unfortunately. I think he would be a good signing for Lennon – he has showed quality and an eye for goal, but hasn’t had enough game time. If he does go back to Fulham, then good luck to him.
Bad Andy – Celtic will have some up’s and down’s, but we will always bounce back. Good luck to Fulham – really nice club.
His move to Celtic coincided also with a return the the Senegal team for the first time in 2 years. Maybe that will have some bearing over where Kamara decides his future lies.
The above quotes are from Kamara’s _former_ agent. I would give those comments the amount of significance they deserve (very little)!!
Any idea how serious Kamara’s injury is? It’s not been reported south of the border at all.
Hamstring I think – out for a couple of months initially. He will be fit again before the end of the season though – so he will be fine if he returns to Fulham in the summer.
As suspected – the Former Agent was talking from his behind. Kamara hopes to stay at Celtic – http://www.celticfc.net/news/stories/news_300310161432.aspx?
