Healy set to leave Celtic and join Everton

CELTIC youngster Colin Healy is expected to complete his move to Everton within the next 48 hours — but his agent is not convinced that leaving Parkhead is a good move for the Cork-born midfielder.

The Republic of Ireland star is seeking a transfer before his contract expires this summer to keep his international ambitions alive.

The two clubs are thrashing out the finer points of the move, according to Healy's agent Mel Stein, who said: "Celtic and Everton are quite close to a deal, but they haven't reached an agreement yet."
