They are not obligated to sign him though so if he or they decide against it he's a free agent shafting Hearts. It's a ludicrous deal for us because there is every chance either Bologna don't think he's good enough (or whatever) or as we've seen countless times with young Scottish players he doesn't settle and returns home, to Celtic. If he wants to leave Hearts this summer, and who can blame him, we should be insisting it's for a fee, done deal.
I think there's varying reports on what the 'obligation' part means. Some are saying obligated to pay if they sign him. Some are saying they're obligated to sign him and the club get a fee, through the loan (thereby meaning Celtic get nothing).
