After a challenging first half to the 2023–24 season, Brendan Rodgers will be looking for greater success in the second half of the campaign for Celtic.
Ange Postecoglou, an Australian tactician who chose to secure a move to the Premier League with Tottenham Hotspur, was replaced as head coach of Northern Ireland by the Northern Irishman last summer.
It was always going to be difficult for Rodgers to follow after winning the domestic triple crown with the Hoops the previous season, as was the case when Kilmarnock eliminated his team from the League Cup in August. With just one victory, the Bhoys finished last in their Champions League group and will not be playing in Europe for the next five months. However, TipsBladet earlier revealed that Celtic could need to pay around €10 million (£8.6 million) to get his services in January.
In order to expand their alternatives on the wing, the Hoops are also getting close to signing Nicolas Kuhn, a forward for Rapid Wien, in a deal said to be for around £2.8 million.

This season, he has been playing for Wien in the Austrian first division, and Celtic will be hoping that his form translates to Scottish football in the coming months and years.
