100%”- Brendan Rodgers Drops Exciting Transfer Bombshell and Gives Firm Answer on Kieran Tierney’s Return to Celtic
The January transfer window is often a challenging time to secure quality signings, but Celtic have shown that successful deals can be made during this period. In Ange Postecoglou’s first season, Celtic secured key transfers in Daizen Maeda, Reo Hatate, and Yosuke Ideguchi, which helped turn their season around. Additionally, Matt O’Riley joined in that window.
The following year, Postecoglou replaced Josip Juranovic with Alistair Johnston, a transfer that proved to be a major success.
While many managers complain about the difficulties of the January window, Celtic have proven that smart business is possible. So, when Brendan Rodgers recently provided an update on the club’s potential transfer activity, it should give fans optimism about what’s to come this month.
Brendan Rodgers Confident Celtic Will Strengthen This January
Rodgers told BBC Scotland, “We just want to strengthen in general. We know what we want to do, and I’m 100% confident the club will do everything to support that. It’s important to have that freshness heading into the second half of the season. So, we have deals lined up that we want to complete between now and the end of January. Hopefully, we can make that happen.”
Rodgers Responds to Kieran Tierney Return Speculation
Celtic fans have been eagerly awaiting a potential return of Kieran Tierney, with the Arsenal defender now in the final six months of his contract, making him eligible to negotiate a summer move. When asked about the speculation, Rodgers firmly stated, “No,” and when pressed about his interest in Tierney, he said, “Well, he is an Arsenal player, so clearly I won’t speak about it.”
This response may have been prompted by the ongoing excitement among fans over the possibility of Tierney’s return to Parkhead. With plenty of resources available and Rodgers driving the recruitment, supporters will be keen to see what talent he can bring to the club this January.
Rodgers made some notable signings last summer, including Nicolas Kuhn, Paulo Bernardo, and Adam Idah. If he can find players of a similar caliber this month, Celtic fans could be in for an exciting transfer window.
