Celtic FC Transfer News: Hoops Eyeing Key Signings in January Window

Kieran Tierney Linked with Celtic Return
One player who has been heavily linked with a return to Celtic is Kieran Tierney. The Scotland international, currently playing for Arsenal, has struggled for playing time and was loaned out to Real Sociedad last season. According to reports, Tierney would be willing to take a pay cut to return to Parkhead, with a free transfer possible at the end of the season when his contract expires.
Benjamin Tahirovic Eyed as Long-Term Replacement for Callum McGregor
Celtic has also been linked with Ajax midfielder Benjamin Tahirovic. The 21-year-old has impressed in the Eredivisie, and Rodgers is reportedly a fan of the player. Tahirovic is seen as a potential long-term replacement for Callum McGregor, who has been a key player for Celtic in recent seasons.
Michel-Ange Balikwisha on Rodgers’ Radar
Another player who has caught Rodgers’ eye is Royal Antwerp forward Michel-Ange Balikwisha. The 23-year-old has impressed in the Belgian Pro League, scoring 25 goals and registering 14 assists in 126 appearances. Rodgers is reportedly a fan of the player’s pace and skill, and a move to Celtic could be on the cards in January.
Celtic Receive Bid for Stephen Welsh
Celtic has received an offer for defender Stephen Welsh from KV Mechelen. According to Sky Sports reporter Joseph, the bid is being considered, and a decision is expected soon. Welsh has been a regular member of the Celtic squad in recent seasons, but the club may be willing to let him go if the right offer is made.
As the January transfer window approaches, Celtic fans will be eagerly awaiting news of any new signings. With Rodgers looking to bolster his squad for the second half of the season, it promises to be an exciting few weeks for the Hoops.
