Celtic FC manager Brendan Rodgers has outlined the club’s plans for the January transfer window, revealing that there are several deals that the club wants to do. Rodgers made the comments after Celtic’s emphatic 3-0 win over St. Mirren, which saw the Hoops go 13 points clear at the top of the Scottish Premiership.
The win was a comfortable one for Celtic, with Nicolas Kuhn opening the scoring in the 33rd minute. Auston Trusty then netted his first Celtic goal just before halftime, and Kuhn added a third in the second half to wrap up the win.
After the match, Rodgers was asked about Celtic’s plans for the January transfer window. He has previously stated his desire to add attacking prowess to his ranks, and he reiterated this desire in his post-match comments.
“We know what it is we want to do,” Rodgers said. “I’m 100% comfortable that the club will do everything in order to support that. It’s important to have that freshness going into the second part of the season. We have deals we want to do; hopefully, between now and the end of January, we can do that.”
Rodgers’ comments suggest that Celtic is actively looking to make signings in the January transfer window. The club has been linked with several players in recent weeks, including Brentford’s Yoane Wissa and FC Copenhagen’s Orri Jonsson.
While Rodgers did not reveal any specific targets, he did emphasize the importance of adding fresh faces to the squad. Celtic has been dominant in the Scottish Premiership this season, but Rodgers knows that the club needs to strengthen its squad if it is to continue competing at the highest level.
The January transfer window is always a challenging time for clubs, as they look to balance their squads and make signings that will improve their chances of success. Celtic is no exception, and Rodgers will be working closely with the club’s scouting department and board of directors to identify and sign the players who can help the club achieve its goals.
One player who has been linked with a move to Celtic is Kieran Tierney, who currently plays for Arsenal. Tierney is a talented young defender who has been impressing in the Premier League, and Celtic fans have been calling for the club to sign him.
However, Rodgers was quick to dismiss the speculation surrounding Tierney’s future, saying that he is happy with the players he has at his disposal. He also praised Greg Taylor, who has been playing at left-back for Celtic, saying that he has been “absolutely amazing” for the club.
Rodgers’ comments suggest that Celtic is not actively pursuing a deal for Tierney, and that the club is happy with its current squad. However, the transfer window is always full of surprises, and it remains to be seen whether Celtic will make any significant signings in the coming weeks.
In other news, Celtic has issued a statement after a power cut disrupted the club’s match against St. Mirren. The power cut occurred in the 60th minute of the match, causing a delay of several minutes.
Celtic’s statement apologized to fans for the disruption and assured them that the club is working to resolve the issue. The statement read: “Celtic Football Club apologizes to our supporters for the disruption caused by the power cut during today’s match against St. Mirren. We are working to resolve the issue as quickly as possible and appreciate the patience and understanding of our fans.”
The power cut was an unfortunate interruption to what was otherwise a comfortable win for Celtic. The club will be hoping to avoid any similar disruptions in the coming weeks as it continues its push for the Scottish Premiership title.
In conclusion, Celtic FC manager Brendan Rodgers has outlined the club’s plans for the January transfer window, revealing that there are several deals that the club wants to do. While Rodgers did not reveal any specific targets, he emphasized the importance of adding fresh faces to the squad. Celtic has been dominant in the Scottish Premiership this season, but Rodgers knows that the club needs to strengthen its squad if it is to continue competing at the highest level.
