Mika Baur has informed Paderborn of his desire to join Celtic this summer after the 22-year-old midfielder agreed personal terms with the Scottish champions.

Jerry: Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall would be be my choice as Everton's new club captain. Mathew: My heart says Jordan Pickford but my brain says one of the younger, influential players like Jarrad Branthwaite or James Garner. Probably Garner as he is more available.
