Celtic are interested in signing another goalkeeper at Parkhead, following the closure of the summer transfer window.
Celtic would be “going from one extreme to another” by signing Liverpool goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher at Parkhead, as transfer insider Dean Jones provides GIVEMESPORT on a key player’s future at the club.
Brendan Rodgers aims to strengthen his last line of defence in his Hoops squad as the side look to retain the Scottish Premiership title this season.
Celtic transfer news – Caoimhin Kelleher
According to The Scottish Sun, Celtic failed with a transfer enquiry to sign Liverpool goalkeeper Kelleher on Deadline Day as the Hoops look to secure another stopper. However, the same report claims that Rodgers has put the Republic of Ireland international at the top of his transfer shortlist, with the Glasgow giants already preparing for the January transfer window just days after the summer market closed.
The 24-year-old hoped to leave Liverpool during the summer window to stake a claim to become a first-choice option elsewhere but moves to Celtic and Wolverhampton Wanderers never transpired. The MailOnline reported in July that Kelleher is valued at around £20m amid interest from Wolves.
Joe Hart has generally been Celtic’s first-choice between the sticks since his 2021 summer move to Parkhead, but a January move for Kelleher could bring the shot-stopper’s time in Glasgow to an end. The former England international has been part of a side that has won two consecutive Premiership titles, including a domestic treble under Ange Postecoglou last term.
