Celtic continued their domination of Scottish football last season, but even the league champions have faced challenges this summer.
Not only did an otherwise successful two-trophy season end in disappointment as they lost to Aberdeen in the Scottish Cup final, but there are the inevitable comings and goings in the transfer market.
In goal, Celtic have had an almost like-for-like change, with long-time back-up Scott Bain heading to promoted Falkirk in search of first-team starts and the younger Ross Doohan, who had been in a similar position with Aberdeen, returning to the Glasgow club to effectively be a number three behind Kasper Schmeichel and Viljami Sinisalo.
In central defence, Maik Nawrocki has joined German second-tier side Hannover 96 on loan with an option to buy while Hayato Inamura has been bought from J-League relegation candidates Albirex Niigata.
However, although the Polish 24-year-old made all of five appearances last season, it appears that the Japanese player, one year younger, will not be a straight replacement considering Rodgers is thinking of sending him straight out on loan.
It is at left-back, though, where the Celtic face a more taxing transfer dilemma.
The return of Kieran Tierney at the end of his Arsenal contract was generally welcomed as a marquee signing that will strengthen the starting XI.
However, with fellow Scotland defender Greg Taylor rejecting a new deal and joining PAOK in Greece and experienced back-up Jeffrey Schlupp returning to Crystal Palace at the end of his loan, it leaves Celtic with “a tough sell” for any potential replacement, according to former Falkirk striker Rory Loy.
“If you are going to go out and get a really established left-back who’s coming in, the first thing you do, you look at their squad and you see Kieran Tierney there,” he told BBC Radio Scotland’s Sportsound.
“It is a hard thing to say to a left-back that you’re coming in as second choice. “
Loy believes an older player, like Schlupp, or young player happy to “come in for a few games” may be the markets Celtic search for a Taylor replacement.
With winger Jota absent through injury until near the end of the year, Celtic needed an immediate replacement on the wing and got it early on with the purchase from Danish club Nordsjaelland of Benjamin Nygren.
The 23-year-old recent Sweden cap has the potential to be just as exciting as the sidelined Portuguese but Celtic will have to search for yet another wide man should Nicolas Kuhn complete his expected transfer to ambitious Serie A upstarts Como.
Rodgers suggested it would be “great business all round” should the 25-year-old be sold for what will reportedly be five times the £3m Celtic paid Rapid Vienna for the German in January last year.
They will, though, need to find someone of a calibre to match Kuhn’s 21 goals in 41 starts and 10 substitute appearances last season.
“He’s almost blown hot and cold at points and, towards the end of the season, looked like a player that was ready to go,” Crichton suggested. “I just feel his performance levels dipped.
“For whatever reason, it maybe just doesn’t feel like that’s the long-term project for him and Celtic. I don’t think Brendan Rodgers is the type of manager that would wait about and try to encourage you to stay at Celtic and apply yourself.
“So, for both parties, it looks like a pretty fair deal. He is not irreplaceable. “
Former Rangers assistant Billy Dodds suggested “it is the right time to sell – it is a no-brainer, it’s time to go” and fellow former Ibrox striker Loy concurred.
While West Ham United raided Celtic Park for prospect Daniel Cummings, the Scottish champions returned the favour by taking fellow 19-year-old striker Callum Osmand from Fulham.
Johnny Kenny, meanwhile, will be hoping to persuade Rodgers that he is ready for more first-team action after the 22-year-old made some fleeting appearances at the end of last season after impressing for Shamrock Rovers in the Conference League.
However, with the Celtic manager admitting he is considering another loan for the Irishman, he will be looking elsewhere for the delayed replacement for Kyogo Furuhashi, who left in January for Rennes but this weekend joined Birmingham City.
Crichton believes losing the Scottish Cup final was proof that Celtic lacked some “firepower” despite one of Kyogo’s Japan team-mates having proved he can be effective up front.
“Daizen Maeda does a real good job through the middle – Adam Idah is there as well,” she said. “But Celtic are a team that scores goals from all over the pitch. “
Dodds suggested: “Surely they are going to have to add a striker. They are desperate to get Maeda back out wide.
Loy believes, looking at Celtic’s early moves in the transfer market, “quite possibly they are slightly weaker” but points out they normally wait until close to the end of the transfer window.
“I think they paid over the odds getting Idah in the door recently, so it’s not always worked in their favour, waiting that long,” he said.
“But I don’t think there will be any panic or rush from Celtic. If you look at Kyogo and Kuhn, that’s another £25m to add to all the other transfers. “
Roy thinks bigger signings might hinge on Celtic winning their Champions League play-off.
“Celtic fans need to be a bit more patient than other clubs, but they are in a very good position,” he said.
Dodds pointed out that “Celtic don’t panic” despite supporters urging them to dip into the money they have in the bank.
“They take their time and usually get it right,” he said.
Dodds, who finished the season as Rangers’ assistant head coach, suggested that only 30% of the squad he and Barry Ferguson had were right for the club.
“Celtic have 80% of their squad right and 20% wrong,” he thought. “They have got it right, so they don’t have to rush, but the Celtic fans, having lost to Aberdeen, won’t accept another hiccup. “

Nine people have been killed in an attack on Malamfatori in the Abadam Local Government Area of Borno State.
The attack also left four others injured in the attack on the border community, 272 kilometres from Maiduguri.
In a press statement from the Borno State Government, the Governor, Babagana Zulum, who was represented by the Commissioner for Local Government and Emirate Affairs, Sugun Mele, condoled with the families of the victims of the attack, making cash donations to them.
“We are here at the instance of His Excellency, Governor Babagana Umara Zulum, who is out of the country on an official assignment to condole with the people of Malam Fatori over the recent unfortunate attack. He assured that the Borno State government and the military will do everything possible to secure the town,” he said.

Zulum Condoles Residents of Malam Fatori over Recent Attack
… Announces Resettlement of an Additional 3,000 families
Borno State Governor, Professor Babagana Umara Zulum, has commiserated with the people of Malam Fatori, Abadam local government area, over the recent attack by Boko Haram insurgents that claimed nine lives and left four others injured.
Addressing the people of the area, governor Zulum, whose condolence message was delivered by the Commissioner for Local Government and Emirate Affairs, Hon. Sugun Mai Mele, assured that government will continue to take adequate measures to ensure their safety and the protection of the town.
“We are here at the instance of His Excellency, Governor Babagana Umara Zulum, who is out of the country on an official assignment to condole with the people of Malam Fatori over the recent unfortunate attack. He assured that the Borno State government and the military will do everything possible to secure the town,” Zulum assured.
“Malam Fatori is one local government area that we are committed to ensuring its stability because of its strategic importance, urging the people to be more resilient and prayerful to avert future incidents,” he added.
While commending the military for their commitment and gallantry, the commissioner announced the deployment of excavators to dig trenches around the local government headquarters to fortify the town from further attacks by Boko Haram/ISWAP groups.
“Let me warn against colluding with Boko Haram, as we will seek divine intervention from the Holy Quran; anyone found collaborating with the insurgents to bring harm or attack to the people of Malam Fatori will be cursed. ”
Hon. Mai Mele then presented cash support of N500,000 to each of the bereaved families and N250,000 to each of the four individuals undergoing treatment.
… Announces Resettlement of an Additional 3,000 families
Similarly, the Commissioner for Information and Internal Security, Professor Usman Tar, has announced that the Borno State government would soon resettle an additional 3,000 households in Malam Fatori.
Briefing newsmen shortly after the sympathy visit, the commissioner said this will bring 5,000 the total number of resettled families.
“Already, Borno State government had resettled 2,000 households, and the government is planning to resettle another 3,000 households soon, making it 5,000 households,” Tar announced.
“Let me assure the people that the state government is poised to provide necessary security arrangements, providing the necessary resources and security to consolidate their stay in their homeland. ”
Professor Tar called on the people to be resilient and prayerful, urging them to report any suspicious movements to relevant authorities.
The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, has said that the International Conference Centre, Abuja, which cost ₦39 billion to refurbish and was renamed Bola Ahmed Tinubu International Conference Centre, has generated ₦700 million in three weeks.
Wike disclosed this at the Thanksgiving service for the completion of projects by the FCT administration on Sunday.
He said before the advent of the President Bola Tinubu administration, the centre was poorly managed, with low revenue accruing to the Federal Government annually.
“The Bola Ahmed Tinubu International Conference Centre, you know, there were people who were running it. They were paying the government ₦50 million every year.
“These are people who want to rescue Nigeria. When we went there, the President said, ‘Look, this is an eyesore,’ that this is not a quality, this is not a Nigeria we should prevent. And we shut the place down. And within six to seven months, we have rehabilitated the international control centre,” he said.

Wike added, “But do you know the shocking thing? The man who was running it, from Adamawa, was paying the government ₦50 million a year.
“But in the three weeks that we just renovated it, we have made over 700 years. This is paying into the coffers of the government ₦50 million a year, but in three weeks, we have made over ₦700 million.
“The same people who will come and tell you they will rescue Nigeria — ₦700 million in three weeks! ”
The minister further stated that it was ironic that those who had the opportunity to serve but mismanaged the country were criticising Tinubu’s administration and claiming that they wanted to rescue Nigeria.
He added, “People had the opportunity to be in the government for several years — eight years, 20 years. People had an opportunity to bring facilities and infrastructure to their states. They didn’t do it.
“That time, Nigerians were not angry. It’s only now that they are not in office that Nigerians are angry. If I say, ‘Look, we want to rescue Nigeria. ’
What you should ask me is, ‘When you had the opportunity, what happened? ‘”
Wike said Nigerians could attest to the positive changes and developments in the FCT due to Tinubu’s decision to pull the FCT out from the Treasury Single Account.
He explained, “Before now, it was difficult for the FCT to access funds. Mr. President, in his wisdom, believed that we should pull out from the Single Treasury Account that had been debilitating the development of the FCT.
“Today, we can see projects because we are no longer operating under the Single Treasury Account. All this was done because Mr. President believes that we should be on our own, have access to commercial banks, and be able to pay back.
“If we want to do projects today, we will have access to commercial banks and use our revenue as collateral. And so, that is why you are seeing projects left, right, and centre.
The inauguration of the centre by Tinubu on Tuesday, June 10, 2025, was greeted with criticism by opposition leaders, some of whom faulted the amount spent on rehabilitating the facility.
However, Wike described them as people who “don’t have good taste”.
Speaking at the inauguration of the newly constructed Left-Hand Service Carriageway in Abuja, he said, “Nigeria, as the Giant of Africa, must not only show that it is the Giant of Africa; people must see what makes it the Giant of Africa. Nobody who loves this country would criticise the International Conference Centre.
