Nicholson not stopping: Celtic make late £5m bid to sign another new playerCeltic have now made a bid for another new player as the Hoops attempt to make a plethora of signings before Friday’s deadline.
Celtic transfer rumours
Brendan Rodgers’ side have made a perfect start to the Scottish Premiership campaign but have now lost star midfielder Matt O’Riley, who joined Brighton & Hove Albion in a record Scottish exit. Therefore, money should be there for Celtic to reinvest, and that is something what Rodgers wants to happen, recently saying:
“We can’t be happy just to make our money and build our pot because the bottom line is on the pitch. That’s the bottom line. The supporters, they pay the money. I look back to the Covid times here, the Celtic supporters sold the stadium out and they weren’t allowed in it.

“So we have the duty to put the best team on the pitch. That’s what we’ll do and look to do. It’s taken a bit longer than I would have liked. But if we can do it by Friday, strengthen the squad, we’ll be in a really, really good place.
“The team is in a good place, mentally, tactically, how they’re playing. But we want to strengthen and have that depth. It’s taken a lot longer than I would have liked as the football manager. That’s my brutally honest answer on it. But I will repeat this. If we get them in, then there’s still a long season ahead. So it’s important that we do get that. And I have belief that we will do.”
Bids have been going in for a number of players, including FC Augsburg midfielder Arne Engels, Los Angeles FC midfielder Mateusz Bogusz and Lazio winger Gustav Isaksen as the club look to make up for the void left by O’Riley.
Chief executive Michael Nicholson and those behind the scenes at Parkhead are showing no signs of stopping, though, with an update emerging of another bid for a defender.
Celtic make £5m bid for Auston Trusty
According to reliable reporter Scott Burns of The Daily Record, Celtic have also submitted a £5m offer to sign Sheffield United defender Auston Trusty.
Called “incredible” by former teammate George Friend, Trusty has been linked with a move to Parkhead in recent weeks and the Hoops have now made their move.

Burns claims that the Blades are reluctant to sell with Trusty under contract until 2027 but Celtic are pushing to make a transfer happen for the 26-year-old, who can turn out as a centre-back or as a left-back.
The USA international made the move to Bramall Lane from Arsenal just last year and made 34 appearances in all competitions, the majority of which came in the Premier League. He’s continued to feature this season under Chris Wilder, but by the looks of things, a move to Scotland could soon be on the cards.

Less talk more action celtic .for me every year we hear this player that player linked .and nothing happens. We sold matt for nearly 30m including add ons. And we get a 19 year old kid with no buy option .if this window ends and we don’t get the players mentioned. Or at least two .of them I can see Rodgers leaving. The poor man .had decided to take a year away from football. But we. Sold him a vision of a club moving forward and making inroads in the champions league..he has kept his end of the deal .a league a Scottish Cup and 60m champions league money .if you look at the sale of players .matt 30m Mike Johnstone 3m larger gone freeing up wages .Daniel Kelly gone .for a undisclosed fee kobiashi gone we seem to be selling and loaning a lot of players out so much so .we will struggle to add 8 home grown players for the champions league so 35m made wage bill down .Two players here last season .who returns. Still the same squad from last season only 11m spent .I was in buying from the celtic superstore and the staff said it had been dead .fans are not buying .and why should we .if the club don’t act with there wallet the fans will close there’s to games will get boycotted. People removing them self’s from season ticket lists and not renewing .the fans have had enough of being treated like cash cows and not seeing our cash going to making our team better …prove me wrong celtic by Friday at 11pm .and get what we need .not want NEED ..OR WE WILL VOTE WITH OUR FEET .EVERY TIME WE HAVE NOT STRENTHENED WHEN WE NEEDED TO .AND STALLED WE HAVE LOST JOHN MCGINN. FELL THROUGH BECAUSE OF LACK OF AMBITION. RODGERS LEFT .SEE THE PATTERNS
