Chris Sutton feels Celtic still have significant work to do in the summer transfer window.
Chris Sutton has claimed that Celtic still have plenty of work to do in terms of new signings before the close of the summer transfer window.
The ex-Bhoys ace is convinced that manager Brendan Rodgers still needs to add a centre-back, a right-back and a midfielder to his squad.
Sutton has referred to the centre-back position as the club’s Achilles heel and believes the Scottish giants need reinforcements for the new campaign in their back line.
Meanwhile, he would also like the club to bring in a new midfielder to replace Stuart Armstrong following his exit to join Premier League club Southampton.
“They lost Stuart Armstrong and haven’t replaced him,” Sutton told BBC Radio 5 Live.
“It has been crying out for a couple of seasons with Celtic, a centre-half has been their Achilles heel in European competition, they need another right-back, get things done.”
Celtic are thin on the ground in defence on Tuesday night, when they have a huge second leg Champions League qualifying clash away to AEK Athens.
Rodgers’ side are currently level at 1-1 following the home draw and are without Dedryck Boyata after he didn’t travel with the squad.
The Scottish giants have already suffered their first defeat in the league at the hands of Hearts and some Celtic supporters would love some new faces to arrive in the remaining weeks of the window to boost the squad.
