Celtic midfielder Scott Brown is reportedly on the radar of Western Melbourne.
Brown has been linked with a move away from Celtic, with Australian club Western Melbourne prepared to sign the 33-year-old former Scotland international, according to The Daily Mail.
The 33-year-old has been on the books of the Bhoys since the summer of 2007 when he joined from Hibernian for a transfer fee reported by The Guardian to be worth £4.4 million.
Celtic boss Rodgers has suggested that Brown could leave the Hoops.
Brown told The Daily Record about Brown: “He is getting towards that cycle in life now where he may want to look at other things.
“One thing he has earned and deserves is time for what he has given the club here over the duration.
“I won’t be surprised if there are a few interested in him coming into his last year and I know he is happy speaking with the club as well, so by the end of the season we will know either way what is happening.
“Scott loves being here, but sometimes towards the end of a career, players can get offered a financial reward for two or three years or whatever that they may not get again in their life.”
Disappointment
Brown is one of the best midfielders in the Scottish Premiership and is a key figure in the Celtic team.
Although the Scotsman is now 33 years of age, he is still going strong and can be a key player for the Hoops in the coming years.
It would not make sense for Celtic to let go of Brown this season or the next, as he can still do a very good job for the Hoops.
