The January transfer window is closing in and Celtic are expected to do business after an indifferent campaign.
Neil Lennon has been in the Celtic hotseat before when the pressure has been on, especially during the January transfer window.
Brendan Rodgers wants added quality injected into his squad, as soon as possible, especially after losing back-to-back Scottish Premiership matches.
But what type of market will Celtic target? Nell Lennon excitedly claimed that he can see England and the ‘lower’ part of the Premier League being an aim, as he told PLZ Soccer.
Before returning to Parkhead, Brendan Rodgers was at Leicester City for several years, who are now high-flying in the Championship.
That’s another market he could look to target as a crucial few weeks are coming up for the whole club.
Celtic’s January transfer targets
“I would imagine he would look at England,” said Lennon. “He knows the market and he will have good contacts there.
“Whether it be top of the Championship or lower Premier League. I think he will be looking for some quality to come in. I think that’s the market he will look at, anyway, for sure. I think you need some British types in there, at times.”
Celtic’s midfield
This is one area the club needs to enhance because the vision also needs to be long-term and thinking about the Champions League.
If the Bhoys are to compete in Europe, or at least challenge to stay in Europe post-Christmas, then that proven midfielder is needed.
Yes, when Callum McGregor, Matt O’Riley and Reo Hatate are fit, they are a joy to watch.
But outside of those three, you don’t exactly have players dancing and jumping through hoops and they can’t play or stay fit all the time, either.
