Player thread: Dedryck Boyata (2013/14)

I think with Boyata moving on, that would free up a spot for Denayer to be promoted.

I think the fee is pretty good for Celtic. I know he aint much cop but in this day and age he should really command about 5M. Understandably we are a bargain basement for the right people. Good luck to Dedryck - excellent professional. Shame about his dad.

I'd agree that the fee is too small as we have made a professional player out of him spending money and time on his development and stuf, but could you find anybody else who'd want to buy him? I guess not. Not to mention that Celtic is a kind of our partner club, so I beliebe we'll have some profit from that in the future, like our [extra] loaned out player getting game time there or a discount if we would want to buy their player. By the way,according to the previous gossip Boyata was moving to Celtic for free with a big sell-on clause, so such a clause may still take place

Good luck to Boyata. Hope it works out for him at Celtic.

Thank god he's finally moving on, he should've moved years ago.

Very poor player moving to a dreadful Football club.Great move for us.

Can't believe his father has said Dedryck regrets joining us - after all, he did sign a new contract last summer! Can't have hated it here that much.

Good luck to the lad. I thought he had huge potential when he broke through. He will be perfect in Scotland.

Good luck Dedryck. I believe you will do well at Celtic. Thanks for your patience and good attitude. I'm sure you will get a good reception when you return to the Etihad.

Spot on. Dedryck is a good player when played at Centre Back but he doesn't possess the confidence we need for our level. It is a shame the impact of the Arsenal sending off had on him.

We have got a fair price for Dedryckis and he has got a big opportunity with Celtic.

The last member of the 2008 Youth Cup winning team to leave.

Good luck, Dedryk. I hope your time at Celtic is a success and I wish you all the best for the future.
