O’Neill fears signings block

MARTIN O’NEILL yesterday expressed his concerns at not being able to bring in players for the domestic campaign even though his own injury crisis looks like clearing up.

FIFA have banned Europe’s top-flight clubs from making new signings before the transfer window even though lower leagues are free to make signings.

But because of Celtic’s financial restrictions they are finding it hard to cope with their current injury problems which O’Neill fears could cost them success if they worsen.
