A significant update about possible arrivals and finances for January has surfaced, and Celtic may try to do some significant business during the transfer window.
Top of the Scottish Premiership is Celtic.
Even though the Hoops are presently leading the Scottish Premiership, they haven’t always had an easy season.After suffering two straight losses earlier this month, Brendan Rodgers’ team has collapsed out of the Champions League, failing to go past the group stage once more. This has also allowed Rangers to catch up to them in the title chase.
Bringing in some new players in January could help Celtic reduce the chance that they won’t win the league this year. They would provide competition for spots and depth when fatigue sets in later in the season. More information on Parkhead’s current transfer predicament has been provided by a recent claim.
£10 million Celtic transfer news
In January, Celtic may spend up to £10 million, according to a news update from Football Insider journalist Pete O’Rourke, who also disclosed the team’s budget for the month. But with three new players needed, that might depend on which players are sold.
“As revealed by Football Insider (December 28), Celtic has a three-man winter target list and will be looking to sign a striker, a central midfielder, and a left winger. “Sources tell Football Insider that the club has between £6 and £10 million to spend in the January transfer window. In light of their reduced budget, Celtic could also be exploring potential loan deals to bolster their squad, but Rodgers is hopeful of additions for his thin squad. A striker is the top priority at Parkhead this winter in light of forwards Kyogo Furuhashi and Oh Hyeon-gyu departing for the Asian continent.
This is an encouraging update for Celtic supporters, highlighting the wish and need to spend once again after a busy summer window that saw a number of new faces arrive. There is still clearly money to spend, and bringing in a new striker has to be at the top of the Hoops agenda, as the report alludes to Cup in the new year.”
Celtic have been linked with a move for Panathinaikos marksman Fotis Ioannidis, for example, with Aberdeen’s Bojan Miovski and Brondby’s Mathias Kvisgaarden also seen as potential suitors in the same update.
Since Matt O’Riley leads the Hoops with nine goals, no player has scored more than ten goals in the league thus far this season. However, Rodgers’ team may be able to overcome Rangers if they recruit a vicious striker.
We’re coming up to a pivotal moment in the season, and by the looks of things, Celtic will be splashing the cash, so it will be fascinating to see if they can offload any players to free up more funds. Nevertheless, it is imperative that we strengthen the squad.
