Celtic are reportedly keen on Liverpool striker Rhian Brewster.
Celtic’s league campaign came to an end earlier today with a 1-0 defeat at home to Aberdeen, though Brendan Rodgers can still end the season in style.
The Bhoys can seal a second consecutive domestic treble next weekend with a Scottish Cup final win over Motherwell, which would mark Rodgers’ second full year at the club in style.
Rodgers will still be in the market for new signings this summer, and with Moussa Dembele’s future in doubt, a new striker appears to be on the Bhoys’ wish list.
The Scottish Herald recently reported that Celtic are hoping to secure the signing of Liverpool talent Rhian Brewster this summer, with a loan deal potentially lined up.
Brewster, 18, has been a sensation for England Under-17’s with 20 goals in 22 games, but he couldn’t break into the Liverpool side this season, and has been out injured since January.
Brewster could thrive under Rodgers’ tutelage, but Celtic’s hopes may already be fading given the that German sides Borussia Monchengladbach and RB Leipzig are prepared to offer him permanent moves this summer according to the Daily Mail.
With no senior contract signed at Liverpool, the Reds may face losing their teenage striker in the near future, and with Celtic only offering a loan deal compared to a permanent move guaranteeing a first-team role, Rodgers may already face an uphill challenge.
