Sky Sports understands Celtic are eyeing a move for Wolves midfielder Stephen Hunt before the transfer window slams shut.

Hunt made the bench for Wolves today after a long lay-off thanks to a hernia problem.

Just had groin surgery. Potential doubt for Euros..?

Hunt, who has won 38 caps, said: “I am one of those players who believes he should be in the starting XI, never mind the squad.
Spectacular fall from grace for Hunt, apparently the manager says he is not part of his plans and that he is willing to let him go on a free. Unfortunately, no club came in for him, so he is stuck at Wolves until January. At the moment, he's not even making the bench for Wolves.
If they paid up his contract and made him a free agent, he could then move before the next transfer window I guess?

Once you're registered with a club after the window has closed, you are not allowed to sign with another club even if they cancel your contract.
Isn't there a loan window that opens in Sept that allows players to join another club for 90 days?
If a loan to a fellow championship were allowed then it would certainly be to everyone's benefit. Although, I think this new Wolves manager should really see that playing Hunt is more to his benefit. Their midfield in a 3-1 loss to Cardiff contained Doumbia, Peszko, Bakary Sako and Edwards. Now, I may not be aware of the other 3 but I could be fairly certain that Hunt is a far superior player to David Edwards.
It's a strange one - it's hard to know if the manager just doesn't rate him, or if the manager's been told to ostracise him to get him off the wage bill, or if our Stephen's just dumped out his toys. All we've got to go on is the manager saying he can leave. I'd have thought there'd at least have been a couple of clubs making enquiries - Hunt's agent should at least have been making some noise.
In England, clubs from the Football League Championship to the Football Conference can loan in players from 8 September to 25 November and also from 8 February until 24 March. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transfe...w#cite_note-27
The reference for that is not to an official source and does not actually say what it is supposed to reference.
It's referenced here and several other places but I think they all reference wikipedia, could not find anything on
an official site.

However the rules on transfers and loans seem to be here and I see no mention of those dates.

So maybe all those loans are in fact illegal
Making his first start of the season tonight against Chelsea. Forde and Foley on the bench, Ward and Doyle rested.
Hunt hauled off at half-time for Anthony Forde with Chelsea leading 3-0. Now 4-0. Can't be good for Hunt.
6-0 now after 70 minutes. So at least they've done worse without Hunt!
It's going to be very interesting to see if Hunt makes the squad for the game against Germany in two weeks time. At this point and time, the only winger who you would guarantee to make the squad is McGeady, so that potentially leaves 3 open spaces. Even if Trap doesn't fancy McClean, you would have to expect he will take a position in the squad given.
Hunt won't make the squad barring a series of injuries.
Kind of sad to witness the inevitable decline of a onetime supersub during the Croke Park era. Still he made the most of what he once had...
