Xaver Schlager has been linked with a move to Celtic in the summer, and 67 Hail Hail’s supporters have named the player that is most likely to be dropped from the side.
Schlager will be leaving RB Leipzig at the end of the season after rejecting a new contract offer.
Celtic won’t be the only side interested, and Bayern Munich have also been linked with the Austria international.
The 28-year-old would be a huge upgrade on the current options and our fans have picked out the player that is most likely to be dropped in our latest discussion on TalkingPoints.

You must drop one midfielder so that Xaver Schlager can play for Celtic…
Who do you pick?
Xaver Schlager would be a nailed-on starter for Celtic
Bringing in a player of that quality would be a huge statement of intent from the club after some questionable transfer windows.
At Celtic right now, aside from Callum McGregor, all of the players have the same playing style.
Only one can be dropped, and 67 Hail Hail fans singled out Reo Hatate.
“Hatate. If you notice when he went off we seemed quicker with ball. Reo for me is our weak link. He was ok at first but been off it for a good 18 months,” commented one fan.
This person wrote: “Hatate, been an empty jersey for months.”
How much would you sell Reo Hatate for?
A third said: “Easy choice. Hatate. His heart isn’t in it anymore.”
Another added: “Hatate all day long.”
There were others who opted for Arne Engels, especially after Nottingham Forest’s failed £25m bid has left people thinking he will be off in the summer.
