Celtic boss Brendan Rodgers says it is a good time to strengthen his ‘exciting squad’ during the summer transfer window
Sky Sports News understands the club’s board will back Brendan Rodgers in the transfer market to help him deliver domestic success and compete in the Champions League.
Celtic have already signed midfielder Odin Thiago Holm on a five-year deal, as he became Rodgers’ first signing since returning to Glasgow and the Parkhead boss is keen more follow.
“It’s a good time to strengthen whenever you have done well,” he said. “It’s not going to be lots of numbers.
“Over the last couple of years they have built a squad, so it’s a case of developing that and adding quality where we can. I’m really excited with the players here because it’s a young squad and there’s still a lot of growth in that.”
