Celtic & Rangers transfer mystery shrouds imminent deal
Not a big deal, right?
Well, the world-renowned journalist has revealed that Forbs chose Belgium over offers he'd received from Scotland, as well as other European countries.
Given he's about to move for around £7.4m, this would only leave Celtic or Rangers as his potential destination.
While it's not clear which of the Old Firm might have been in the mix for his signature, both teams have been in the market for wingers this summer.
Russell Martin has signed Djedi Gassama today for £2.2m while more wide players are reportedly on his radar.
Across the city, Celtic have signed Swede Benjamin Nygren while another could be on the way should Brendan Rodgers sanction the sale of Korean attacker Yang Hyun-Jun.
Romano wrote on X: "Carlos Forbs is set to join Club Brugge from Ajax, here we go! Deal done for €8.5m fee.
"The player is traveling to Belgium tonight ahead of his medical tomorrow.
"Forbs opted for the Brugge project over offers from England, Italy and Scotland."

Celtic hero Odsonne Edouard ‘finally finds new club as striker ends transfer speculation with stunning move'
ODSONNE EDOUARD is finally closing in on a move away from Crystal Palace and will leave England altogether in a stunning swoop, it's being claimed. The Celtic hero is set to end his Selhurst Park nightmare after four years down south, joining the club from the Hoops back in 2021. 2 Odsonne Edouard has endured a difficult spell at Selhurst Park Credit: Reuters 2 The striker is on his way out Credit: Getty Out-of-favour Edouard, 27, hasn't played for Palace since last August as he was shipped out on loan to Leicester City last season. But things didn't improve for the Frenchman at the King Power stadium as he remained a backup option for the Foxes and wasn't favoured by Rudd van Nistelrooy when he took charge in November. He hasn't kicked a ball since coming off the bench as a substitute in the 88th minute against Manchester United that same month. But Edouard will be hoping to get his career back on track in his first move away from the UK since leaving PSG to join Celtic initially on loan in 2017 - then permanently the following year. The striker is believed to be on his way to Spain for the first time of his career. According to FootMercato, Edouard is set to be announced as Girona's newest recruit in a surprise swap deal. It's stated that the forward will move to the La Liga club for around €6million (£5.2m), while Arnau Martinez will head in the other direction in a deal worth around €10million (£8.7m). It's a move that will see the Frenchman link up with former Aberdeen hitman Bojan Miovski. The two players have something in common - other than both being strikers. Aside from that, they are two players who Celtic fans have been urging Brendan Rodgers to sign in recent months. Celtic transfer special as Rodgers lands SEVENTH signing, Hoops eye winger & left-back latest Miovski was a target for the Hoops when he left Pittodrie for Girona last year, while Celtic fans have been crying out for Edouard's return this summer. Rodgers has been hunting for a striker since January and could still sign another before the end of the window, despite already landing Shin Yamada and Callum Osmand. Rodgers was the manager who brought Edouard to Glasgow eight years ago and he's been linked with a return swoop for the hitman all summer. He did, however, confirm last month that he WASN'T looking at a deal for the former fan favourite. Rodgers said: 'Odsonne hasn't been on my radar, to be fair. 'I obviously know him but it's about a player who will fit into the structure of the team.' Keep up to date with ALL the latest news and transfers at the Scottish Sun football page

Lando Norris goes public with on-off girlfriend Margarida Corceiro at Hungarian GP after rekindling romance with model
The couple had previously kept their relationship under wraps MARGA MIA Lando Norris goes public with on-off girlfriend Margarida Corceiro at Hungarian GP after rekindling romance with model Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) LANDO NORRIS was seen arriving at the track with his girlfriend Margarida Corceiro for the first time this season. The British driver, 25, was all smiles when he walked into the McLaren motorhome with the Portuguese actress and model this morning. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 5 Lando Norris has been in an on-and-off relationship with model Margarida Corceiro Credit: ALAMY 5 The couple made their first public appearance today ahead of the Hungarian Grand Prix Credit: SHUTTERSTOCK 5 Norris was all too happy to be seen with Corceiro Credit: SHUTTERSTOCK 5 Corceiro stunned at the paddock and McLaren garage on Friday in a plunging dress Credit: SHUTTERSTOCK Norris has rekindled his relationship with Corceiro this season but has kept things low-key up until now, with her often walking into the paddock alone. The couple arrived today just seconds apart from Oscar Piastri, who was holding hands with girlfriend Lily Zneimer. Norris and Corceiro previously dated for a year from around May 2023. She was first spotted back on the scene this year, supporting him from the McLaren garage at the Monaco Grand Prix at the end of May where he secured a glittering win. Norris and Corceiro's first spell together came shortly after the model had just split from Portuguese footballer Joao Felix. Their relationship split at the time when the Portuguese footballer's initial loan spell at Chelsea came to an end last year. Norris and Corceiro were then seen at the Monte Carlo Masters final in April 2024, although there was no official confirmation of their relationship. The romance was short-lived, though and in August 2024, Norris said he was single.
