Stokes to seal dream move to Paradise

ANTHONY STOKES is expected to join Celtic from Hibernian today after the SPL rivals agreed a fee for the Republic of Ireland striker.

It is understood that the Bhoys are to part with around £1.2 million (€1.46 million) in order to bring the 22-year-old striker on board.

Hibs have agreed to let Stokes go as it has become clear that he has set his heart on a switch to Parkhead and have signed Darryl Duffy on loan from Bristol Rovers to take his place.
