Brendan Rodgers sends message to Celtic board as Rangers boss confirms ‘puzzling’ decision

Ahead of Saturday’s action, all the latest information and rumours regarding transfers involving Celtic and Rangers.Rangers still have a game in hand, but Celtic leads the Scottish Premiership by five points at this point. Based on the evidence we have seen thus far, we might have the most intriguing title battle in recent memory, but there is still plenty of football to be played.

Rangers play Livingston later in the day on Saturday, after Brendan Rodgers’ team plays Aberdeen away from home early in the morning. Meanwhile, we’ve compiled the most recent information about both clubs.

Rodgers regarding Celtic matters

In order for Celtic to regain its dominance in the upcoming years, manager Brendan Rodgers has cautioned that the team has to be “braver” in the transfer market. “I would go with supporters thinking we could maybe be a little bit braver in terms of bringing in another level of player,” he stated. “However, it is my responsibility to try to address that while I am still here.

“When you consider this approach, you must proceed with caution as it has proven effective in certain instances. Players are brought in at a low cost, and they go on to provide significant revenue for the team. In my little time here, I hope to strike a balance between allowing us to continue doing that and acknowledging its importance in the current game. However, we also wish to have the guts to throw in the towel and accept a ready-made player. Thus, while I completely appreciate the support, the player also needs to be available.”

Clement on omissions in the Europa League

The players that Rangers manager Philippe Clement has left off of his Europa League roster for the knockout stages have been confirmed. “If you’re looking for a balance, Ridvan has to be there,” he stated. “You need two full-backs; in the first round, that was an issue. We were without a left-back if Borna Barisic had an issue.

“On that European list that I sent in today, that was a challenging point. Fabio Silva is in, and Sam Lammers is out. That makes sense. Diomande enters in lieu of Cifu (Cifuentes), who is most likely not in. As Ridvan (Yilmaz) will be added to the list, Leon Balogun, Kieran Dowell, and Cortes will not be allowed to be on it. I’m hurt by that.

“Over the past few days, we have spent hours debating with the staff, and you consistently reach the same conclusions. If you don’t make these adjustments, the equilibrium will be lost.”
