IF reports are true that Celtic are interested in Aberdeen’s Scott McKenna, it seems Celtic have an ace up their sleeve when it comes to negotiations.

The Aberdeen side are just after returning Ryan Christie to Glasgow after a year and a half loan deal up north where the player was a huge hit.

Earlier this summer Derek McInnes expressed an interest in bringing the midfielder in on a permanent basis if he was surplus to requirements at Celtic.

At the time, the Aberdeen boss’ advances were rebuffed by Brendan Rodgers who wanted to see the player in pre-season before making a decision.

Since then, Rodgers has spoken about not being able to give Christie as much game time as the player might like and while he is a good squad player might have to move him on.

News that Sunderland have made an enquiry about taking the young Scot down south should alert Aberdeen to his current availability and we’d be surprised if his name doesn’t come up in any potential deal for Scott.

Celtic fans are split over the Scott McKenna deal, with some believing he’s another unknown quantity much like jack Hendry who has been having a hard time of it. Nonetheless, if Rodgers is hell bent on bringing McKenna in, then a player plus cash deal could be the right move for all parties.

Providing Christie would want to head back to the Dons on a permanent basis.

  1. Don’t want McKenna I want Dawson., Robert huth or John Terry McKenna just average like Hendry who is garbage these other defenders no nonsense loads of experience as well would well sort out Celtic defence

  2. As I say what is this congerton doing I’ve got players for him.craig Dawson Robert huth John Terry Claudio Jacob he a free agent tae why was Rodgers in Manchester tae I honestly feel these eejits aren’t gonna sign any defenders I honestly think they should do a punt in berahino another striker as the 3 amigos keep getting injured griffs dembele and edouarrd

  3. Brendan keeps saying he wants better quality than what’s already there…. and then this ?.. come on to fuck Celtic…. where’s the ambition ?

  4. Thank god your not 1 of scouts Michael, Terry racist, misogynist who’d shame our club if we went for him, huth legs r gone, draws on a failed centre back in worst goals conceded team in epl last season and wba want 15 mill for him, really. And jakob a defensive mid who missed as many games as he plays due to suspension.

    • Ok get your fair comment Stevie didn’t know Terry was a racist well I would certainly do better than that eejit congerton blind man would do better than him do u want McKenna Stevie I don’t

      • I agree congerton been awful and like u I don’t rate Mckenna. Way I wrote post looks rude, apologies for that it wasn’t meant to be, your opinion every bit as valid as mine. To be honest I haven’t a clue who to go for other than maybe Steven Caulker if he can recapture past form and John Souttar who wld be excellent sweeper in a back 3 or Reyes the Mexican centre back who’s an old fashioned stopper type????

    • Totally agree with everything this guy just said and was about to say the same. Some people need to use there heads before writing stupid knee jerk reaction comments. Not to mention terry was banging his team mates bird. Guys an absolute rocket with no moral compass

  5. That’s who I thought of tae reyes the Mexican there is also bruma fae Wolfsburg who played for Rodgers at Chelsea I’m just frustrated wish we still had mjalby valgaeran etc bobo balde I’m also a bit concerned why oor strikers keep getting injured tae
