Nuwtfly Posted May 5, 2017 Share Posted May 5, 2017 Chelsea are interested in Celtic's teenage attacker Michael Johnston. The 18-year-old has earned rave reviews for the Scottish club's academy this season. And his performances have attracted admiring glances from top clubs south of the border, with Chelsea among the sides tracking the youngster. Johnston put in an impressive performance to help the Hoops' Under 20s secure a Scottish Youth Cup triumph over arch rivals Rangers last month. The highly-rated youngster is yet to make a first-team appearance but his display in that 3-0 victory would have undoubtedly impressed the watching Brendan Rodgers. Stoke and Derby are also making regular checks on Johnston, who has just one year left on his current deal. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-4474438/Chelsea-consider-swoop-Celtic-starlet-Michael-Johnston.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't remember it like that at all. Maybe his legend here in Manchester has changed the story somewhat? The story goes, he just didn't like being famous and he was a big figure (like Rashford I guess, except white) at the time. Thrusted into the limelight. Liked a beer.
