Celtic target Michel-Ange Balikwisha admits he doesn't know where his future lies...after revealing injuries stalled his move to the Hoops.

The Royal Antwerp winger was twice strongly linked with a move to Celtic, but injuries scuppered the move.

Celtic could still reignite their interest in the 23-year-old this summer and he's set to discuss his future soon with Royal Antwerp sports director - former Barcelona and Arsenal star Marc Overmars.

"I suffered a meniscus injury in the 2024 winter transfer window. And last summer, Celtic, Lille and Lens came knocking and I was out again at a bad time.

"If I continue on this path with the way I am playing, things can go quickly.

"And if it turns out tomorrow that my Antwerp story is coming to an end, then I hope to sign elsewhere in time, so that I can play a farewell match for the fans."
