The agent of Celtic’s Shunsuke Nakamura says the player is on the verge of completing a ‘dream’ move to Espanyol.
The Japan international moved to Celtic Park in 2005 from Reggina, but after four years and 119 appearances the wide midfielder is looking to embark on a fresh challenge.
Espanyol are keen to recruit the 30-year-old and his agent, Tsukuda Roberto, says an agreement is close.
“We have reached a basic agreement that will allow the player’s dream to become a reality very soon,” his agent told Sports Hochi in Japan.
Nakamura’s agent reportedly met Espanyol’s sporting director Ramon Planes last week to thrash out a deal.
