Celtic step up chase for McGinn 

McGinn came on as a sub for Northern Ireland against Hungary
Celtic have made an offer for Derry City's highly-rated midfielder Niall McGinn and the deal is expected to go through within the next few days.
The Scottish champions had initially wanted the 21-year-old Northern Ireland international to undergo a trial period in Glasgow.

But Celtic have pursued their interest despite Derry refusing that request.

McGinn made his first appearance for his country in last month's 2-0 defeat by Hungary.

McGinn, who is also interesting Swansea City, was recently named young player of the year by the Professional Footballers' Association of Ireland.

And last week Derry City chairman Pat McDaid revealed that he had turned down Celtic's request to take McGinn on a week-long trial.  Niall has two years left on his contract, so we would be happy for him to stay at Derry City

"I was surprised by Celtic's request in that Niall is a full-time player playing in a professional league and he has just been named young player of the year," said McDaid at the time.

"If any club wants him then they will have to make an offer.

"We have had a couple of offers from Championship clubs, but neither have met our valuation.

"There are no deadlines or anything like that. Niall has two years left on his contract, so we would be happy for him to stay at Derry City."

McGinn was recently in Swansea to watch the 2-2 draw in the south Wales derby with Cardiff City.

Celtic signed Pat McCourt from the Candystripes in June, but the winger has failed to make an impact in Glasgow.

The 24-year-old picked up a pre-season injury and has been restricted to two late appearances as a substitute.

Good for him.  I hope he's a big success.

Personally think its a bad move for McGinn. Would gladly eat humble pie but he is not as good as McGeady or Maloney.

Meh. Not a huge fan of O'Neill's  but he deserves a rattle. I do like McGinn and O'D, they're the lads likely to stick IC football. And they've balls. Mannies and Jasy are still U21 so long grass

Always impressed by Gareth Devlin when I seen him.

Good to see new blood being introduced - maybe it can drive the existing panel members on to greater things.

[Tyrone Dreamer]

Tyrone are the current All Ireland Champions, it doesnt get any greater than that!

I do agree though that fresh talent is needed to keep every one on their toes and push the existing players on. Will look forward to seeing the new players in the McKenna Cup. Has the panel definately been confirmed at this stage? Is any one apart from McCaul missing for next year?

OM good luck in the Ulster club minors. Still gutted from that day.  But as u proved games are won by playing to the death, which is something we probably learned from and helped to win the league final today.

Cheers and well done - it's would have been doubly gutting had you lost today - you've got a great side there. Errigal are a fantastic side as well and they'll be disappointed not to have taken something out the season.
