Town Keen to Loan Manchester City Youngster But Bolton Favourites Thursday, 8th Jun 2017 20:11 Town are interested in signing Manchester City winger Bersant Celina on a season-long loan but newly-promoted Bolton Wanderers look favourites to land the 20-year-old Kosovo international. Sky Sports are reporting that the Blues and Wanderers are both in talks with City regarding Celina, however, while TWTD understands the Blues are keen, the interest is yet to progress that far. Celina, who is currently away with the Kosovo U21 squad ahead of a game in Norway, the country where he lived from the age of two and with whom he won caps at U15, U16, U17 and U21 levels, has already met with Bolton manager Phil Parkinson and been given a tour of the Macron Stadium. “I know that Bolton are keen on signing me,” he confirmed to Norwegian newspaper Aftenposten. “But we’ll just have to wait and see what happens, there are other interested clubs as well. “But I think Bolton would be a good club for me. It’s a club that belongs in the Championship or Premier League.” Celina, who joined Manchester City from Norwegian club Strømsgodset as a 15-year-old, spent 2016/17 on loan with Dutch side FC Twente, scoring five times and picking up five assists in 27 appearances. Twente are said to keen for him to return next season. Capped six times by Kosovo at full level, scoring once, Celina has made one Premier League sub appearance for City in addition to two starts and one game from the bench in the FA Cup.
