No-go for Cavenaghi
CELTIC have been rebuffed in a bid to sign Argentine internationalist Fernando Cavenaghi.

Efforts to sign Romanian defender Gabriel Tamas are expected to prove more fruitful. A £3.5m fee has been agreed with Auxerre and negotiations to iron out the player's wage demands remain ongoing as Celtic head to Portugal today for games against Cardiff City, Middlesbrough and Porto.
