Celtic is reportedly setting its sights on Nottingham Forest defender Scott McKenna as they aim to bolster their central defence line.
Sources from PLZ Soccer indicate that the Scottish Champions have made tentative inquiries about the player, highlighting their intent to strengthen their squad.
McKenna, a solid fixture in Scotland’s national team, made his move to Nottingham Forest from Aberdeen in 2020 for a fee around £3 million. Despite a promising start, the 26-year-old has recently struggled to secure regular playing time, featuring only five times this season. This lack of game time could be a driving factor behind the potential move.
Celtic’s interest in McKenna is not new; the club had previously eyed the defender during his time at Aberdeen. However, the current scenario at Parkhead makes the move more interesting.
The club is also anticipating changes within its defensive ranks, with Gustaf Lagerbielke and Yuki Kobayashi likely to depart, and Nat Phillips’ loan concluding at the end of December. These potential exits would deplete Celtic’s options at the back. However with Scales, CCV, Nawrocki and Welsh, is there room for more
Brendan Rodgers made it clear Nawrocki will get more game time in the second half of the season. So perhaps this enquiry was made before Rodgers decided this?
His experience in both the Scottish Premiership and the English Championship could provide a robust and seasoned addition to the squad.
