Brendan Rodgers Opens room for a Potential Last Gasp Midfielder signing

As the clock ticks closer to the 11:30 pm deadline, there’s a frustration and angst around Celtic Park. Celtic fans feel the club have no longer done adequate in this window to provide them the fine risk of success. However, the club reportedly have their eye on a new midfielder with now not long to go. [RecordSport]

This improvement isn’t barring reason. David Turnbull’s £2 million shift to Cardiff will go away a gap, and with Reo Hatate potentially nursing an harm post-Asian Cup duties, the midfield is crying out for reinforcement. However, the record isn’t speculating on any names at this point. Things cross quick on cut-off date day, so we could understand shortly.

It’s now not just the middle of the park getting all the attention. A left-back is high on the desire list too, including another layer to the squad’s depth. Adam Idah’s arrival from Norwich City on a six-month mortgage spell is a welcome boost, but it’s no longer enough.

He’s the second new face in the door, however the feel around Parkhead is that the club’s not accomplished dealing yet.

Turnbull’s departure, mixed with the uncertainty around Hatate, has really nudged the Celts to focus on fortifying their midfield. It’s a busy day, alright, with the rumour mill churning out whispers of James Forrest doubtlessly shifting on, whilst Mikey Johnston is set to follow Turnbull out.

Despite keeping a five-point lead over Rangers, who have a game in hand, there’s no room for complacency. The fans, usually the heartbeat of the club, are hoping for a flurry of last-minute deals.

There’s extra than just pride at stake in this season’s Scottish Premiership. The victors will pocket a hefty Champions League bounty, rumored to be north of 40m plus!.
