Alexandro Bernabei reaches full agreement on Celtic transfer – Sources
Celtic have signed off on Alexandro Bernabei’s exit to Brazilian side Internacional after reaching a full agreement on the deal, sources have told Football Insider.
Well-placed sources have told Football Insider that the 23-year-old is set to depart on a season-long loan to the Brazilian Serie A.
The Brazilian season kicks off next month and their transfer window closes on Thursday (7 March), allowing Bernabei to exit while the European window is shut.
The Argentine will be the second Hoops player to leave the club this month, with sources revealing to Football Insider (7 March) that Liel Abada has completed his medical ahead of his £10million move to MLS outfit Charlotte FC.
Alexandro Bernabei will leave Celtic immediately
The left-back moved to the Glasgow giants from Argentine side Lanus in the summer of 2022 for a reported fee of £3.75million but has failed to establish himself as a mainstay.
Bernabei has made nine appearances in the league this season, just three being starts, and has been frequently left out of Brendan Rodgers’ matchday squads.
He has been unable to oust long-serving Celtic star Greg Taylor from the left-back spot since his move.
The Hoops were reportedly willing to let him depart in the January transfer window amid interest from Italian and Argentine clubs, but a move did not materialise.
