As Brendan Rodgers’ first season back in the Parkhead dugout draws to a conclusion, Celtic is still vying for two titles.
After defeating Aberdeen on penalties last weekend, the Bhoys advanced to the Scottish Cup final. They will take on Rangers at Hampden next month to compete for the oldest trophy in association football.

Joe Hart is retiring from professional football, signifying the need for a new number-one stopper in Glasgow’s east end; meanwhile, decisions over whether to try and sign either Paulo Bernardo or Adam Idah permanently will also come into consideration.

According to reports from The Sun earlier this month, Celtic are among the clubs competing for the signature of versatile Blackburn Rovers attacker Sammie Szmodics. Premier League clubs such as Brentford, Luton Town, and Fulham are also interested in the Republic of Ireland international.
