Celtic are set to hand Scott Bain a new Celtic contract according to reports.

The Scottish Daily Express claim Ange Postecoglou has been impressed with the keeper, even though he’s had zero game time since Joe Hart entered the building.

Celtic need a backup goalkeeper and Ange clearly believes Scott is good enough to be that second choice.

Bain has had ups and downs in a Celtic jersey but he’s probably best as a number two. The goalkeeper is contracted until 2023, so he still has 18 months to go on his current deal.

Of all the things Celtic need to be getting sorted, this is lower on priorities.

Will Scott want to stay and play second fiddle or will the goalkeeper fancy game time elsewhere after his current deal?

What’s more than certain is Vasilis Barkas will likely move on sooner rather than later so Bain’s presence right now is very much needed.
