Celtic must sell one of their senior centre-backs this summer and bring in a top replacement.
Speaking exclusively to Football Insider, former Rangers and Aston Villa defender Alan Hutton claimed the Hoops “need” a new centre-half, but the club would have to let one go beforehand.
Brendan Rodgers’ defence has been under fire this season – most recently in the Old Firm on Sunday (7 April) where they shipped three goals in the second half.

Hutton admitted that finding a long-term Joe Hart replacement should be the club’s transfer priority, but suggested improvements to the backline will be beneficial heading into next season.
“They’ve had injuries in defence and Cameron Carter-Vickers, when he’s fit, is the nailed-on number-one,” he told Football Insider.
