Selling one of our key players at this stage of the season, doesn't show great ambition. But If this turns out to be true, then I hope we get the deal sorted out quickly so we can replace him.
Me personally I want him to stay to at least see this season out.
Don't sell now. Sell him in the summer. If he carries on like this the 1 mil will still be on the table. Why risk upsetting what we have going and I think CP knows what a difference Yann has made.
Leon Clarke isn't a Yann K in terms of a like-for-like replacement. Different gravy. He's the best forward we've had since Darren Bent. Wouldn't want to lose him for all the tea in China at the minute.
Bit worried that there might be legs on this one. Hooper looks set to leave Celtic for around 3-4m, they've been keeping tabs on League One, primarily to scout Rhodes but also because top end of League One/lower Championship is where SPL teams can attract players from now. Rhodes is now out of their price range but Lennon was in the stadium when Yann was the best striker on the pitch against Huddersfield. Also, Yann isn't the name a Scottish correspondent would be able to pluck out of the air. Looks like it's going to be a long January !
I am absolutely certain on this one. We have worked hard to put together a great squad, and to bond a team spirit reverberating right through the Club. We are sitting at the top of the League and the one thing we must not do is disturb the squad unnecessarily. If it resulted in our losing promotion, the £1 million would not compensate for the loss of money, confidence, time and support. I would like to see Yann say no thanks, but I certainly expect to hear Michael Slater confirm that no-one in our squad is available especially for what is a paltry sum in the big scheme of things at CAFC.
I see the financial aspect, but Yann is vital to us going up. He didn't look out of place against Senderos and Hangeland, two experienced Premier League players.
I desperately hope this is a no, unless it really gets into the "silly money" category.

Yann is the best forward since Darren Bent, Andy Hunt and Clive Mendonca, sincerely hope we don't sell such a great warrior. Totally agree with comments above - promotion is worth far more than 1 million. The man always gives 101% effort and we haven't had anyone as good in the air since Matt Tees!
Yann is the new Costa - would be a disaster to sell him. Somehow he has had a whole career of underachievement for someone who is a real centre forward. Tell Celtic to do one. However, won't Yann be excited to play one game in the Champions League every year ?
Think if we sell what affect would this have on the team morale , we're building for the future and to get out of this division why jeopardise this doesn't make sense to me
The transfer rumours section of any paper's technique is random number + random player + Words, irrelevant words = panic fans into buying/reading the paper. Not giving it another second's thought
All he will get out of a move to Celtic is a couple of trips to some obscure part of eastern europe.Hope he stays and it shows we a serious to get back up there.

IMO this is a Douglas Barder rumour...................no legs.
No way club or player can say no to an offer like that.
I say No, No, No
An absolute NO, NO.

Ps. Those Celtic comments were laughable
