MAJORITY SHAREHOLDER Dermot Desmond is ready to back his Celtic manager with cold hard cash as Celtic enter the next phase of the Rodgers revolution.

Desmond was pivotal in the appointment of the Irishman in May last year and has made sure he’s been given all the tools to succeed in the role so far. The businessman is now set to harken back to the days of the O’Neill era in order to make sure his manager can get the very best players available to him.

With Dermot’s backing alongside Peter Lawwell’s astute handle of the business as a whole has seen Celtic go from strength to strength in the last five years.

Brendan’s new contract got the green light from the Irishman who promised the manager he will back him all the way.

With figures being banded about of £15million to spend this summer this could be in the ballpark. Although the manager hasn’t been given a specific budget he has been told that Celtic will do everything in their power to go get his very top targets in the coming months.

With Champions League qualifiers looming as early as July it’s all hands on deck behind the scenes and with a treble still being chased it’s an exciting time to be a Celtic fan.

  1. What happened to last season’s Champions League prize Money? £15m isn’t going to get you much these days, certainly not CL quality.

  2. If we can keep hold of dembele ,Tierney and Armstrong 15 mill will be enough for 3 good players to bring in to enhance the team further .. I think Rodgers has been given assurances he will be backed in the transfer market or he wouldn’t have signed for so long .. if they sell dembele every penny should be given to Brendan to spend .. he’s proved he will pick the right players to bring in

  3. THE CLUB ARE RIGHT NOT TO BROADCAST WHAT THE BUDGET WILL BE FOR OBVIOUS REASONS.THIS IS A FIGURE STEMMING FROM SOME ARSE HOLE JOURNOLIST. I REPEAT TELL THESE PEOPLE NOTHING.WE ARE HANDING THEM A LOADED GUN TO BLOW US AWAY.

  4. It’s all about value for money not specific budgets. There some quality players lurking about in some of the Northern European leagues that could be picked up for a reasonable fee. Id like to see a centre half that can organise the defence, another winger to replace paddy, and after that maybe a utility midfielder. Defence is the priority for me.
